Moving on from Kirkpatrick (1994): estimating 'safety factors' for flying vertebrates.
The most cited work (by far) to provide safety factor estimates for the wing bones of flying vertebrates is inaccurate. Kirkpatrick (Kirkpatrick, 1994) presented extremely low measurements for the material properties of wing bones and anomalous estimates of applied loading that deflate estimated safety factors to around half those reported by subsequent workers. He also did not discuss the limi...
متن کاملiranian english learners’ perception and personality: a dual approach to investigating influential factors on willingness to communicate
abstract previous studies on willingness to communicate (wtc) have shown the influence of many individual or situational factors on students’ tendency to engage in classroom communication, in which wtc has been viewed either at the trait-level or situational level. however, due to the complexity of the notion of willingness to communicate, the present study suggests that these two strands are ...

متن کاملSimilarities in body size distributions of small-bodied flying vertebrates
Since flight imposes physical constraints on the attributes of a flying organism, it is expected that the distribution of body sizes within clades of small-bodied flying vertebrates should share a similar pattern that reflects these constraints. We examined patterns in similarities of body mass distributions among five clades of small-bodied endothermic vertebrates (Passeriformes, Apodiformes +...
