The brain adjusts grip forces differently according to gravity and inertia: a parabolic flight experiment
In everyday life, one of the most frequent activities involves accelerating and decelerating an object held in precision grip. In many contexts, humans scale and synchronize their grip force, normal to the finger/object contact, in anticipation of the expected tangential load force, resulting from t...
