The mechanical behavior of a recently patented mechanical hand is examined by means of a multibody model. The hand is an under-actuated and self-adapting system that was conceived as human hand prosthesis. Test results are also presented as an application example; they showed that both the proposed model and the technique can be very useful for the study of the considered mechanical system. The research was carried on in cooperation among Italian and Russian Universities.

Abstract
The mechanical behavior of a recently patented mechanical hand is examined by means of a multibody model. The hand is an under-actuated and self-adapting system that was conceived as human hand prosthesis. Test results are also presented as an application example; they showed that both the proposed model and the technique can be very useful for the study of the considered mechanical system. The research was carried on in cooperation among Italian and Russian Universities.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
