Kinematic hand models can be used to predict where workers will place their fingers on work objects and the space required by the hand. Hand postures can be used to predict hand strength. Kinematic models also can be used to predict tissue stresses and to study work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Study and design of manual hose installation is an important application for kinematic hand models...
This study aimed to develop a model that describes human finger motion for simulation of reach and grasp for selected objects and tasks. Finger joint angles and timing of their changes were measured for six subjects as they reached 20–40cm and grasped cylindrical handles (1.3–10.2cmD) of varying orientation (vertical/axial). The empirical results from multiple regression analyses served as inputs...
