Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

The shield cutterhead experiences eccentric loads when excavating through composite strata, leading to potential deviation of the cutterhead. This study examines the static response, modal characteristics, and vibration response of a shield cutterhead in

Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

Study on the influence of TBM disc cutter on the penetration of extremely hard rock in Zijing Tunnel
The reasonable setting of TBM disc cutter penetration depth is crucial for its rock-breaking efficiency in extremely hard rock geology. In the construction section of the Dujiangyan to Mount Siguniang Zijing Tunnel project, which encountered extremely ...

Abstract Hadrosaurid dinosaurs are generally regarded as “crested” or “non‐crested” depending on the presence or absence of a bony cranial crest. At least one supposedly “non‐crested” hadrosaur is known to have possessed a soft tissue cranial crest (or comb), based on an exceptionally preserved “mummified” specimen. Here we redescribe this specimen and

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Research on new type of directional drilling PDC bit used in coal mine drill
When drilling hard formation or staggered formation,normal single layer flat base bit wears heavily.Therefore,we developed a new kind of directional drilling polycrystalline diamond composite(PDC) bit and analyzed its rock breaking mechanism and stress ...

Abstract Primates show a high degree of locomotor diversity that engenders similar variance in limb bone cross‐sectional geometry and bending strength: leaping primates have stronger hindlimb bones whereas suspensory species have stronger forelimb bones.
