Finite element analysis of feeding in red and gray squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris and Sciurus carolinensis)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

A derivative-free algorithm for nonlinear equations and its applications in multibody dynamics

open access: yesJournal of Algorithms & Computational Technology, 2018
Local floating coordinate system is used to represent the deployment motion of each rigid and flexible body of multibody system dynamics. Normal substructure modes are employed to describe the flexibility of a flexible body.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Development Environment for Optimized Locomotion System of Planetary Rovers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper addresses the first steps that have been undergone to set up the development environement w.r.t optimization and to modelling and simulation of overall dynamics of the rover driving behaviour under all critical surface terrains, like soft and ...

Dynamics Modeling of Robot Manipulators Based on Deep Lagrangian Network and Torque Separation Technique

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, learning robot manipulator dynamics with deep networks has been extensively studied, as it avoids deriving the analytical expression of the robot dynamics equations. In particular, deep Lagrangian networks that incorporate the prior knowledge of Lagrangian mechanics into the deep networks have shown prominent advantages in ...

Determining the State of a Nonlinear Flexible Multibody System Using an Unscented Kalman Filter

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
This paper describes an estimator incorporating the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) technique and multibody system dynamics, to determine the state of the flexible multibody applications. The dynamic equation of the flexible mechanism is formed using a set

Terrain Classification for Planetary Rovers Using Wireless In‐Wheel Sensor Modules and Machine Learning

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Safe and reliable mobility over different kinds of ground is important for planetary rovers on space missions. Since terrain changes might affect the mobility of the rover, energy consumption, and safety, detecting the type of ground in real‐time is vital.
