Comments on “Static Analysis of Indeterminate Contact Forces in Robotic Grasping and Manipulation” published in Vol.27 No.4

Abstract

This paper answers the question on indeterminate contact force posed by Makita, Oda, and Maeda in Vol.27, No.4. Introduction of an elastic contact model is a reasonable solution to their question and it was already solved in our subsequent researches. This paper introduces our two computation methods based on the elastic contact model and poses questions to their analysis from the physical point of view.
