Incorporating General Contact Surfaces in the Kinematics of Tendon-Driven Rolling-Contact Joint Mechanisms [PDF]
This paper presents the first kinematic modeling of tendon-driven rolling-contact joint mechanisms with general contact surfaces subject to external loads. We derived the kinematics as a set of recursive equations and developed efficient iterative algorithms to solve for both tendon force actuation and tendon displacement actuation.

Common sports‐related nerve injuries seen by the electrodiagnostic medical consultant
Abstract The high physiologic demands of sports create dynamic stress on joints, soft tissues, and nerves which may lead to injuries in the athlete. Electrodiagnostic (EDx) assessment is essential to identify the correct diagnosis, localization, and prognosis, to guide management of sports‐related neuropathies.
