Humerus osteology, myology, and finite element structure analysis of Cheloniidae [PDF]
The Anatomical Record, 2019 AbstractAdaptation of osteology and myology lead to the formation of hydrofoil foreflippers in Cheloniidae (all recent sea turtles except Dermochelys coriacea) which are used mainly for underwater flight. Recent research shows the biomechanical advantages of a complex system of agonistic and antagonistic tension chords that reduce bending stress in ...
