The jaw is a second-class lever in Pedetes capensis (Rodentia: Pedetidae) [PDF]

, 2017
The mammalian jaw is often modelled as a third-class lever for the purposes of biomechanical analyses, owing to the position of the resultant muscle force between the jaw joint and the teeth.

A performance spectrum for parallel computational frameworks that solve PDEs [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Important computational physics problems are often large-scale in nature, and it is highly desirable to have robust and high performing computational frameworks that can quickly address these problems. However, it is no trivial task to determine whether a computational framework is performing efficiently or is scalable.

Complete metamorphosis promotes morphological and functional diversity in Caudata

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Metamorphosis, a common and spectacular developmental process, involves major phenotypic changes often linked to environmental transitions. Understanding how these changes affect morphological evolution is crucial for examining metamorphosis's evolutionary impacts.

Cognitive status of edentate elders wearing complete denture: Does quality of denture matter? [PDF]

, 2015
BackgroundEmerging evidence suggests that an individual’s level of mastication may play a role in their cognitive status. This suggests that in edentate individuals wearing complete denture, non-optimal mastication via inadequate denture could be related
