Morphological determinants of bite force capacity in insects: a biomechanical analysis of polymorphous leaf-cutter ants

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
The extraordinary success of social insects is partially based on ‘division of labour’, i. e. individuals exclusively or preferentially perform specific tasks.

Bite Force in Elderly with Full Natural Dentition and Different Rehabilitation Prosthesis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021
(1) Background: This study aimed to investigate maximum bite force (MBF) in elderly patients with natural full dentition (FD), patients rehabilitated with Traditional Complete Dentures (CD), with overdentures (IRO) and edentulous patients (ED).

A lower maximum bite force is a risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease: the Suita study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Decreases in masticatory function are believed to be related to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) through inappropriate nutritional intake.

Biting in the Miocene seas: estimation of the bite force of the macroraptorial sperm whale Zygophyseter varolai using finite element analysis

open access: yesHistorical Biology, 2021
Differing from the extant physeteroids, macroraptorial sperm whales are currently regarded as apex predators of the Miocene seas based on several morphofunctional observations.

Masticatory system integration in a commensal canid: interrelationships between bones, muscles and bite force in the red fox

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2021
The jaw system in canids is essential for defence and prey acquisition. However, how it varies in wild species in comparison with domestic species remains poorly understood, yet is of interest in terms of understanding the impact of artificial selection.

Biomechanics of juvenile tyrannosaurid mandibles and their implications for bite force: Evolutionary biology

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, 2021
The tyrannosaurids are among the most well‐studied dinosaurs described by science, and analysis of their feeding biomechanics allows for comparison between established tyrannosaurid genera and across ontogeny. 3D finite element analysis (FEA) was used to

Description of the skull, braincase, and dentition of Moschognathus whaitsi (Dinocephalia, Tapinocephalia), and its palaeobiological and behavioral implications

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A subadult Moschognathus whaitsi from the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa, was scanned using synchrotron radiation X‐ray computed tomography (SRXCT). Its subadult state allowed the cranial bones and teeth to be identified and individually reconstructed in 3D.
