Abstract

In an approach to develop tactile sensors for robots and other devices, the authors are utilizing a nonlinear (hyperelastic and viscoelastic) FEM model of the fingertip to simulate a physiological experimental procedure to determine the vibrotactile threshold of the fingertip. A vibration with an amplitude A=1 μm and different frequencies were applied on the model. Results show that the model can be used for the mentioned target, and we are continuing to perform a series of simulations (for different vibration amplitudes) and will show the simulated results in the conference.
