Contact forces in roughness discrimination [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractRoughness perception through fingertip contact with a textured surface can involve spatial and temporal cues from skin indentation and vibration respectively. Both types of cue may be affected by contact forces when feeling a surface and we ask whether, on a given trial, discrimination performance relates to contact forces. We examine roughness

Sensorimotor control of contact force [PDF]
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2008 Interacting with objects in the environment introduces several new challenges for motor control: the potential for instability, external constraints on possible motions and novel dynamics. Grasping and manipulating objects provide the most elaborate examples of such motor tasks.

Entropic forces drive cellular contact guidance [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2018 AbstractContact guidance—the widely-known phenomenon of cell alignment induced by anisotropic environmental features—is an essential step in the organization of adherent cells, but the mechanisms by which cells achieve this orientational ordering remain unclear.

A continuous contact force model of planar revolute joint based on fitting method
Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2017 Both the process of eliminating the clearance in joints and the contact–impact process involve movement of a clearance mechanism, which may reduce transmission accuracy and lengthen the response time. An appropriate continuous contact force model is able
