The study discusses a model for impact forces produced during landing from a jumping smash activity. The objectives are to investigate the magnitude of the forces during landing, to observe the angles at the hip and knee joints, as well as the forces in the horizontal axis. The Newton-Euler equation is applied to develop a model that represents the lower limb of a human body. World class badminton player are chosen as subjects during the Kuala Lumpur Thomas Cup 2000. Results show that during landing, the impact forces produced on the landing foot is lower than that of the other foot. Change of the angles on the shank and hip segments shows that subjects flexed their feet when landing to minimize injury.
