Joints in the human body utilize torque to create movement, where a force F acts at a distance, r, from a rotation point. In biomechanics, F is generated by muscles acting on the joint, and r is the distance between the joint’s center of rotation (COR) and the muscle line of action. This distance r is known as a geometric moment arm (GMA). Changes...

... of Florida | Journal of Undergraduate Research | Volume 22 | Fall 2020 the center of the capitate. This location was determined from three measurements ( Figure 5): (1) the width of the subject's right hand at the location of the capitate, (2) the distance between the palmar surface of the capitate and the palmar surface of the right hand, and (3) the distance between the dorsal surface of the capitate and the dorsal surface of the right hand. Subtracting the sum of (2) and (3) from (1) ...
