Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance black-blood thrombus imaging for the diagnosis of acute deep vein thrombosis at 1.5 Tesla

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2018
Background The aim was to investigate the feasibility of a cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) black-blood thrombus imaging (BBTI) technique, based on delay alternating with nutation for tailored excitation black-blood preparation and a variable flip

The mechanism of labor in nonhuman primates: A look inside

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract While in humans, the flexed position of the fetus and its rotating course down the birth canal are well documented, in other primates the mechanism of labor is unknown. Despite the lack of comparative data, it is commonly assumed that the human obstetric mechanism is unique, and anthropologists have disputed when and why the transition to the ...

Influence of shell initial perturbational motion conditions on its nutation angle value

open access: yesMilitary Technical Collection, 2013
The article investigates the influence of initial conditions of projection of a shell from a cannon bore providing that cannon bore and shell have perfect axial symmetry, and shell precessional motion occurs only due to gravity action, as well as gun tube substantial wear and warming up when firing.

Method of damping nutation motion with minimum spin axis attitude disturbance [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
In a method of and apparatus for damping nutation of a spinning spacecraft, spin axis attitude disturbances are substantially reduced by controlling at least one nutation damping gas thruster to fire with nonuniform gas pulses.

Three‐dimensional digital analysis of musteloid masticatory muscle architecture

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Musteloids span an enormous breadth of dietary modes within a single superfamily. In this study, we utilize digital dissection techniques to reconstruct the internal 3D anatomy of muscles within the musteloid feeding apparatus, and explore how dietary specializations might alter the size, orientation, and curvature of fascicles therein.

Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Low-power WALTZ decoupling under magic-angle spinning NMR [PDF]

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance
Heteronuclear low-power decoupling using the solution-state wideband alternating-phase low-power technique for zero-residual splitting (WALTZ) sequences has become quite popular in solid-state protein NMR and seems to work well.

Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Parrots (Order: Psittaciformes) are renowned for their high bite force (BF) and morphological correlates thereof, including a highly mobile skull and two unique mandibular adductor muscles—m. pseudomasseter and m. ethmomandibularis, with the former being hypothesized to increase force output.
