Mechanisms for Age-Related Changes of Fingertip Forces during Precision Gripping and Lifting in Adults

We investigated changes across the adult life span of the fingertip forces used to grip and lift objects and their possible causes. Grip force, relative safety margin (grip force exceeding the minimum to avoid slip, as a fraction of slip force), and skin slipperiness increased beginning at age 50 ye...
