Biomechanics of the Hand describes the role of the hand and explain the functional and economic implications associated with pathological conditions. This book updates knowledge on the mechanical properties of the musculoskeletal system of the hand in normal and pathological situation. Biomechanics of the Hand provides the link between clinical practice and research in hand (between surgeons and bioengineers) and is also a source of information (situations leading to stress and pathology) for all professionals (ergonomists, physiotherapists). An original approach on the internal kinematics of the hand, including 3D modelingAn original approach on the anatomy of the human hand (morphogenesis of the human hand using 3D geometric modeling)Highlights all pathological conditions in hand therapy to which biomechanics make a significant contribution INDICE: 1. The Biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system of the hand2. The Hand3. The instrumentation4. Biomechanics properties of the hand5. Musculoskeletal disorder of the hand6. Perspectives
