Biomechanical Analysis of Force Distribution in Human Finger Extensor Mechanisms

The complexities of the function and structure of human fingers have long been recognised. The in vivo forces in the human finger tendon network during different activities are critical information for clinical diagnosis, surgical treatment, prosthetic finger design, and biomimetic hand development....
