Torque control of underactuated tendon-driven fingers [PDF]

open access: yesMechanical Sciences, 2011
Given an underactuated tendon-driven finger, the finger posture is underdetermined and can move freely ("flop") in a region of slack tendons. This work shows that such an underactuated finger can be operated in tendon force control (rather than position ...

Vertical locking of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the little finger: A case report

open access: yesChinese Journal of Traumatology, 2017
Locking of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint is commonly caused by hyperextension of the thumb or moderate flexion of the index or middle finger. We report a rare case of vertical locking of the MCP joint of the little finger in a 16-year old female ...
