Quantifying bite force in coexisting tayassuids and feral suids: a comparison between morphometric functional proxies and in vivo measurements [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Background Measuring mammals’ bite force in laboratory conditions is not a simple task, let alone on wild medium-sized mammals in the field. Thus, morphometric-proxies are usually used to infer morphofunctional properties of musculoskeletal features. For

Microcontrolled bite force measurement
International Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry, 1996 Maximum bite forces are related to the health of the masticatory system. They could be defined as a condition, expression and measurement of masticatory function. There are several techniques, (mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, piezoelectric, ect.) as well as many devices for the bite force measurement.
