Development of a three-dimensional static biomechanical model for the prediction of hand exertion capability and its application to cart pushing and pulling /

A new three-dimensional whole-body biomechanical model has been developed to predict maximum isometric hand exertion capability under strength, stability, and foot/floor friction constraints. The strength constraints ensure that the moments created by the predicted hand exertion at the joints do no...
