MRI-based skeletal hand movement model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The kinematics of the human hand is optimal with respect to force distribution during pinch as well as power grasp, reducing the tissue strain when exerting forces through opposing fingers and optimising contact faces.

A TISSUE JOINT OF THE LITTLE FINGER. [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1906
The accompanying illustration shows a hand-print of the middle, ring and little fingers of a young man. Between the metatarso-phalangeal joint and the distal end of the first phalanx of the little finger is what appears to be a joint. The bone is intact, but the tissue creases at this point when the man closes his hand.

Dynamic Young’s Modulus of Scarf- and Finger-Jointed Beams using Longitudinal Vibration Method

open access: yesBioResources, 2015
The elastic properties of oak wood (solid wood, scarf-jointed beams, and finger-jointed beams) and two different, independently applied adhesives (polyvinyl acetate and isocyanate) were investigated. Using a longitudinal vibration technique and comparing

Biomechanical analysis of the human finger extensor mechanism during isometric pressing. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
This study investigated the effects of the finger extensor mechanism on the bone-to-bone contact forces at the interphalangeal and metacarpal joints and also on the forces in the intrinsic and extrinsic muscles during finger pressing.

Modified Kinematic Technique for Measuring Pathological Hyperextension and Hypermobility of the Interphalangeal Joints

open access: yes, 2011
Dynamic finger joint motion is difficult to measure using optical motion analysis techniques due to the limited surface area allowed for adequate marker placement.

Study on the Effect of Finger Joints on the Stiffness of Fibre-Managed E. nitens Sawn Boards

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Fibre-managed E. nitens has the potential to be used as a feedstock for engineered wood products. This resource, however, has a number of strength-reducing features that need to be removed, and the board needs to be re-joint to be useful in greater ...

Necessary Metacarpophalangeal Joints Range of Motion to Maintain Hand Function

open access: yesHong Kong Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2014
Objective/Background: This study was conducted to ascertain the necessary flexion or extension range of motion (ROM) required for the finger metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints to maintain hand function. Methods: Twenty-one healthy adults were recruited for

STRENGTH OF STRUCTURAL FINGER-JOINTS REINFORCED WITH FIBERS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The finger-joints are the kind of top joints most used in wood blades to manufacture glued laminated timber (GLULAM) and present direct influence on their rigidity and final mechanical strength.
