Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Review of articular cartilage repair techniques and their application in the horse

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Articular cartilage lesions represent a significant career‐limiting problem in athletic horses. A healthy articular cartilage surface is vital for optimal joint function, and defects can result in irreversible degenerative changes. Successful treatment of cartilage lesions remains a long‐standing challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, prompting ...

Nonlinear Dynamics of a Passive Walker: Bifurcation and Stability Insights With Spring and Damper Mechanics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the nonlinear dynamics associated with a passive dynamic walker (PDW), focusing on the bifurcation and stability insights derived from spring and damper mechanics. PDWs, which rely on gravity for stable locomotion without active control, exhibit a rich spectrum of behaviors, from periodic to chaotic motion.
