  • Abstract
    An analysis of the mechanics for multifingered grasps of planar and solid objects is presented. The main feature of the authors´ approach is the decomposition of the contact finger forces. At each grasp point, a contact force is resolved into components along the normal and tangential directions. This formulation of decomposition gives deeper physical insights into the roles of the normal and tangential finger force components for multifingered manipulation
