The fossil record stays silent: Confusions and conundrums for hominin pelvis evolution
Abstract The evolution of the hominin pelvis is commonly modeled as a series of stages driven largely by the requirements of bipedal locomotion, reproduction, thermoregulation, and pelvic floor muscular support. These patterns are complicated by variation in canal dimensions in relationship with different changes in overall pelvic breadths. To quantify

The mechanism of labor in nonhuman primates: A look inside
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 ...

Tactile display for presenting stiffness distribution using magnetorheological fluid
This paper describes a tactile display for reproducing stiffness distributions based on magnetorheological (MR) fluid. This display can represent stiffness distribution by controlling the applied magnetic field locally.

BIMANUAL VIBRATORY PALPATION. [PDF]
In making a bimanual examination of the kidney or of a uterine or ovarian tumor it is often difficult to determine with great precision the extreme boundaries of the growth or of the misplaced organ. There is often a doubtful zone, around the more central manifestly resistant part of the tumor, where it shades off into the surrounding tissues.

Estimating in vivo midfoot and hindfoot joint locations using external skin markers
Abstract Musculoskeletal modeling offers a non‐invasive approach to analyze human movement, enabling estimation of forces that are difficult to measure experimentally. In musculoskeletal modeling, the human body is represented as rigid segments connected by joints.
