Inclusion Criteria
- Active voluntary healthy adult aged 18 to 65, affiliated to a social security scheme
- Stature between 170 and 179cm
- Body mass index (BMI) between 20 and 25
- No previous hand musculoskeletal disorders

- Having signed the consent to participate in the study
Exclusion Criteria
- the subject presents a neurological or orthopedic disorder ;
- the subject presents a pathology that could disturb the task ;
- the subject has an Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) contraindication (wears a pacemaker, insulin pump, prothesis, etc, has claustrophobia, ...)
Study & Design
- Study Type
- INTERVENTIONAL
- Study Design
- PARALLEL
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Average fingertip deflection under compression Day 1 The different stresses will be: compression of the fingertip by a static loading on the phalanx distal of the index of the subjects; Then also a shear stress in the transverse direction of the finger.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Average fingertip dimensions Day 1 In order to develop realistic biomechanical models of the fingers allowing the simulation of the grip, an essential step will be the experimental mechanical characterization of the distal phalanges.
