Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding. A craniofacial joint would, however, be a weak link if cranial stability is important. Paradoxically, we have identified a craniofacial joint in helmeted hornbills (Rhinoplax vigil),

Rapid and Stable Recovery Method in Re-adhesion for High-cold EMUs
机车电传动, 2018 The bad operation environment of the high-speed EMUs is a big challenge to adhesion control of the rail between the wheel and rail. A method of rapid and stable recovery method in re-adhesion for high-cold EMUs was proposed, which could ensure the smooth

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.

Diet of bird‐like troodontid dinosaurs: synthesis of a contentious clade
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Troodontidae is a clade of small‐to medium‐sized maniraptoran theropods that mainly lived in Laurasia (modern Asia, North America and Europe) during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods and are believed to have had a variety of diets. The uniqueness of troodontid teeth suggests that they diverged from the typical flesh‐based diet of non‐avian ...
