Relationship between the Structure of Human Finger Tissue and the Location of Tactile Receptors.
Open accessAbstract
There are several tactile receptors in the tissue of human fingers.In this study we calculate in detail the deformation of finger tissue when a finger comes into contact with a rigid plate using a FE(finite element)model to clarify the reason for the precise location of the receptors.The FE model is constructed using measured geometry and meterial properties.As a result, we found that the strain energy is concentrated at the tactile receptor locations.When a frictional force is applied, the stress / strain is concentrated near the edge of the contact area.By calculating the stress / strain distribution using models with / without epidermal ridges / papillae, we found that the shape of the epidermal ridges / papillae influences the stress / strain distribution near the tactile receptors.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
