This paper presents a human biomechanical model with 4 degrees of freedom of a human body in a car seat with backrest exposed to vertical vibrations. The proposed model has been analysed for five various values of radian frequency as numerical input data, and the results were compared with the results obtained for similar models in the published literature. In the biodynamic analyses the model was simplified to linear system to reduce the complexity of analytical and numerical simulations.
