The armored carapace of the boxfish
Acta Biomaterialia, 2015 The boxfish (Lactoria cornuta) has a carapace consisting of dermal scutes with a highly mineralized surface plate and a compliant collagen base. This carapace must provide effective protection against predators as it comes at the high cost of reduced mobility and speed.

Dynamic behaviors and protection mechanisms of sulcata tortoise carapace
Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2021This paper presents the compressive behavior of tortoise carapace at high strain rates and its protection mechanisms under impact loading. Both experimental and numerical results are reported. Tortoise is a land-based desert-dwelling animal taxonomically

On the origin and variation of colors in lobster carapace
Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2015 The chemical basis of the blue-black to pink-orange color change on cooking of lobster, due to thermal denaturation of an astaxanthin-protein complex, α-crustacyanin, in the lobster carapace, has so far been elusive.
