We investigated the finger design and kinematics, mechanical joint coupling, and actuation methods of these commercial prosthetic hands. The empirical findings are supplemented with a compilation of published data on both commercial and prototype research prosthetic hands. We discuss numerous mechanical design parameters by referencing examples in the literature. Crucial design trade-offs are highlighted, including number of actuators and hand complexity, hand weight, and grasp force.
  The fibula is commonly known as the calf bone. It's the weight-bearing bone that extends to the ankle from the knee. It runs parallel to the tibia, which does is not w â¦ eight-bearing.he fibula is connected by a synovial joint to your other shin bone, the tibia. The â¦ fibula is what makes your outer ankle bone. And the tibia makes your inner 'ankle' bone. The main job of the tibia is to form a hinge joint with the femur, which allows you to walk, run, kick a ball, and generally have fun.
In human anatomy, the fibula is a bone of the leg. It is situated lateral to the tibia (larger shin bone) and between the patella (knee) and ankle. The fibula is not as long, â¦ thick, or strong as the tibia, and does not provide weight support.he muscle is called a flexor if the centers of the connected â¦ bones are brought closer together when the muscle contracts, and the movement is called flexion.
