Categorical perception of tactile distance [PDF]
The tactile surface forms a continuous sheet covering the body. And yet, the perceived distance between two touches varies across stimulation sites. Perceived tactile distance is larger when stimuli cross over the wrist, compared to when both fall on ...

In vivo contact stresses at the radiocarpal joint using a finite element method of the complete wrist joint [PDF]
A small number of cadaveric studies have been carried out looking at the force transmission through the radiocarpal joint. In this study subject specific finite element models were created of the whole wrist joint using measured biomechanical data to ...
