  • Abstract
    In this paper, we introduced the concept of the force concentration line in analyzing the force distribution among the grasping fingers in 3D four-fingered grasps. The characteristics of the force concentration lines and the relationship between these lines and the principal axes are discussed. A new representation of the finger forces is proposed and the equilibrium grasping forces can be expressed and determined clearly using this representation. It turns out, that, using this new representation scheme, we can solve all the possible solutions to the grasping force distribution problem.
