Microcontrolled bite force measurement
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.

Skull Morphology, Bite Force, and Diet in Insectivorous Bats from Tropical Dry Forests in Colombia
In Neotropical bats, studies on bite force have focused mainly on differences in trophic ecology, and little is known about whether factors other than body size generate interspecific differences in bite force amongst insectivorous bats and, consequently,

Effect of gender, facial dimensions, body mass index and type of functional occlusion on bite force
OBJECTIVE: Some factors such as gender, age, craniofacial morphology, body structure, occlusal contact patterns may affect the maximum bite force. Thus, the purposes of this study were to determine the mean maximum bite force in individuals with normal ...
