The largest fossil rodent.
The discovery of an exceptionally well-preserved skull permits the description of the new South American fossil species of the rodent, Josephoartigasia monesi sp. nov. (family: Dinomyidae; Rodentia: Hystricognathi: Caviomorpha). This species with estimated body mass of nearly 1000kg is the largest yet recorded. The skull sheds new light on the anatomy of the extinct giant rodents of the Dinomyi...
متن کاملFinite element analysis in vertebrate biomechanics.
This special issue of The Anatomical Record presents a series of papers that apply the method of finite element analysis (FEA) to questions in vertebrate biomechanics. These papers are salient examples of the use of FEA to test hypotheses regarding structure-function relationships in complexly shaped biological objects such as skulls and in areas of the skeleton that are otherwise impervious to...
متن کاملFinite Element Analysis in Orthopaedic Biomechanics
Based on the evolution of today’s personal computers and workstations, numerical simulation gained an important significance in biomechanical research. A common tool in numerical simulation is the finite element method (FEM), which can be applied in various ways, e.g. in structure mechanics, thermodynamics or acoustics. The field of orthopaedic biomechanics utilises two major numerical approach...
متن کاملEffect of bite force on orthodontic mini-implants in the molar region: Finite element analysis
OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of bite force on the displacement and stress distribution of orthodontic mini-implants (OMIs) in the molar region according to placement site, insertion angle, and loading direction. METHODS Five finite element models were created using micro-computed tomography (microCT) images of the maxilla and mandible. OMIs were placed at one maxillary and two mandibular p...
متن کاملCorrecting the stress-strain curve in hot compression test using finite element analysis and Taguchi method
In the hot compression test friction has a detrimental influence on the flow stress through the process and therefore, correcting the deformation curve for real behavior is very important for both researchers and engineers. In this study, a series of compression tests were simulated using Abaqus software. In this study, it has been employed the Taguchi method to design experiments by the factor...
