A stable wrist position is achieved through a balance of forces in muscles acting around the wrist. If a tendon and/or muscle is disabled or functionally altered in any way the balance is disturbed, usually resulting in impaired position control of the wrist. In some cases the position control of the wrist can be enhanced through a tendon transfer operation. The goal of this project is to provide...
Equations for the mechanics of wrist movement were formulated and simulated on the computer. The output is a display of wrist movement as muscle activation is altered and allows analysis of the control of wrist position through the use of different sets of muscles. The simulation includes the geometry of the wrist joint, the moment arms of the tendons, and the dependance of muscle force on muscle...
