Patterns of spinal motion, kinematic spaces and the land‐to‐sea transition in carnivorans
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Using 3D reconstructions, we quantify intervertebral joint mobility to investigate how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebral regions evolved distinct kinematic roles in pinnipeds. The findings reveal lineage‐specific adaptations for swimming and highlight the functional significance of vertebral joint flexibility in ecological transitions.

Descriptive, comparative, and functional anatomy of the facial musculature in cattle (Bos taurus)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Facial expressions can provide insight into animal emotions and pain, but no standardized system for assessing the entire facial display in cattle (Bos taurus Linnaeus) exists. The Facial Action Coding System (FACS), originally developed for humans, identifies distinct facial movements based on mimetic muscles.

Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by alterations in social understanding and self‐related experience that overlap with broader dimensions of psychosocial vulnerability. These domains are tightly interconnected, motivating the use of analytic approaches that can capture their organization as complex associations rather than as ...

Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by persistent difficulties in social interaction and communication alongside restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities. Emerging evidence suggests that bi/multilingualism may enhance social interaction skills, yet prior research has largely ...

Studies on vibration of some rib-stiffened cantilever plates [PDF]
Journal of Sound and Vibration, 1978 Abstract An experimental study was carried out to determine the resonant mode shapes and frequencies of some rib-stiffened skew cantilever plates by holographic interferometry. The influences of varying the sweep back angle, the rib stiffness and the aspect ratio, and the effect of varying the boundary conditions at the root chord, on the frequencies

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability
BMEMat, EarlyView.Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

The structural acoustic properties of stiffened shells [PDF]
, 2008 Plates stiffened with ribs can be modeled as homogeneous isotropic or orthotropic plates, and modeling such an equivalent plate numerically with, say, the finite element method is, of course, far more economical in terms of computer resources than ...

Internalization of Management Systems and Eco‐Product Innovation: The More the Better?
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Environmental challenges demand urgent and strategic responses from firms. Eco‐product innovation (EPI) is a key approach to reducing environmental impact while preserving competitiveness. This research analyses the relationship between EPI and the internalization of management system (MS) certifications, focusing on ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ...
