About my question on viscoelastic coefficient for human finger joints
and a dynamic model of it:

> I'm working to simulate the natural movement of an artificial human
> finger.
>
> The question: preparing the dynamic model I am not be able to find
> indicative values of the viscoelastic coefficient of the cartilagineus
> finger joints (MP, PIP and DIP)
> Is there any study on this? And on the inertia, weight and other
dynamic
> parameters of phalanges?

If I'm not mistaken, all of these studies employed either static or
dynamic
modeling.
