Claim 0:
1. An optimum elastic strength calculation device comprising:
a storage unit configured to preliminarily store an elastic strength and kinematic property obtained through experiments in a state where an elastic orthotic device for assisting an action of an orthotics user is worn on bodies of a plurality of people; and
an optimization problem processing unit configured to calculate an optimum elastic strength of the elastic orthotic device based on a predetermined evaluation index using a kinematic constraint condition of the orthotics user and the elastic strength and kinematic property,
wherein the elastic strength and kinematic property comprises a predictive value of a walking speed, a predictive value of a maximum bending angle of a joint, a predictive value of a maximum extension angle of the joint, a predictive value of a maximum joint moment of the joint, and a predictive value of a maximum muscle activity amount of a muscle which are obtained through the experiments in the state where the elastic orthotic device is worn on the bodies of the plurality of people.
