An ontological morphological phylogenetic framework for living and extinct ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...

Intelligent weighted hierarchical direct yaw moment control for distributed drive electric vehicles

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering
Distributed Drive Electric Vehicles (DDEVs) equipped with four-wheel independent drive (4WID) systems possess the capability to independently generate both driving and braking torques.

On Nonlinear Model Predictive Vehicle Dynamics Control for Multi-Actuated Car-Semitrailer Configurations

open access: yesIEEE Access
Although the literature includes examples of model predictive controllers for trailer sway mitigation through direct yaw moment control in car-semitrailer configurations, the available studies do not consider the integration of direct yaw moment control ...

Previously undocumented regional variability in crab‐eating macaque skull sexual dimorphism and its implications for biological and morphometric studies

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract In a large sample of adult crab‐eating macaques, we quantified sexual dimorphism in size, shape, and covariance across the whole skull and among anatomical regions of the cranium and mandible. All regions showed significant mean sex differences, but the magnitude of size and shape dimorphism varied substantially.

Optimal torque distribution strategy of DDEV based on enhanced exponential sliding mode controller

open access: yesJournal of Measurement Science and Instrumentation, 2023
A novel direct yaw-moment control scheme is proposed to improve the lateral stability of distributed-drive electric vehicles (DDEV). The scheme adopts a hierarchical control structure that consists of an upper controller and a lower controller.

Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Parrots (Order: Psittaciformes) are renowned for their high bite force (BF) and morphological correlates thereof, including a highly mobile skull and two unique mandibular adductor muscles—m. pseudomasseter and m. ethmomandibularis, with the former being hypothesized to increase force output.

Variable grouping patterns in primates: A test of the better competitor hypothesis in male Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intraspecific variation in social organization (IVSO) within primate populations can arise due to male mating competition. Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi) populations exhibit both single‐male and multi‐male groups, providing an opportunity to examine the relationship between male competitive ability and social organization.

Epidemiological Survey and Genomic Insights Into Ostreid Herpesvirus 1 Transmission in the Blood Clam Anadara broughtonii in China (2019–2025)

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Seven‐year surveillance reveals a cold‐adapted OsHV‐1 lineage in blood clams, with disease onset at 13°C—3–5°C lower than in oysters—and identifies asymptomatic carriers and facility effluent as key transmission routes. ABSTRACT Ostreid herpesvirus 1 (OsHV‐1) poses a major threat to bivalve aquaculture, but its impact on blood clams (Anadara ...

Direct Yaw Moment Control of 4WID Electric Vehicles via Gain-Scheduled NFTSMC With Prescribed Performance and Fixed-Time Disturbance Rejection

open access: yesIEEE Access
A robust framework for direct yaw moment control in four-wheel independent drive electric vehicles that combines gain-scheduled nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode control, prescribed performance control (PPC), and fixed-time disturbance observer ...
