Puncturing ability of idealized canine teeth: edged and non-edged shanks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Idealized edged and non-edged indenters, mimicking canine teeth, were used to puncture thin materials and thick materials. Less force was needed for the edged (triangular in cross section) indenter to penetrate thin Mylar, paper, leather, beetle elytra and turkey skin than the non-edged (circular in cross-section) indenter. Oak, grass and magnolia leaves responded equally to both indenters. In thick materials, the edged indenter punctured beetles, shrimp, bananas, and chicken fl esh more easily than the non-edged indenter. Apple, tomato and avocado were punctured equally well. The edged indenter directs cracks at the corners so that the material can fold away in the direction of puncture, whereas cracks form unpredictably with the non-edged indenter. Edged indenters have the advantage in many of the materials tested. Introduction

Canine teeth of bats (Microchiroptera): size, shape and role in crack propagation
Upper canines in microchiropteran bats show a variety of cross-sectional shapes. A consistent feature of all species studied here is that the tooth is edged and not simply round or oval. Prominent sharp edges are positioned in several directions but particularly antero-medially toward the incisors and posteriorly toward the premolars. These edges appear to direct the cracks made in food items t...
متن کاملInvestigation of absorption pump light distribution in edged-pumped high power Yb:YAGYAG disk laser
In this article, we present a specific shape of disk laser which is side-pumped by four non-symmetric hollow- ducts. The use of non-symmetric hollow duct based on two goals of the uniformity of the pump light distribution profile and the homogeneity of pump light profile through the disk. First of all we simulated the pump light distribution in the disk by using Monte-Carlo ray tracing method. ...
