Comparative cranial biomechanics reveal macroevolutionary trends in theropod dinosaurs, with emphasis on Tyrannosauroidea

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Tyrannosaurus is viewed as a model organism in vertebrate paleontology, with numerous studies analyzing its feeding biomechanics. Nonetheless, the evolution of this feeding performance has been under‐addressed in Tyrannosauroidea, especially in basal tyrannosauroids. Here we used muscle‐force reconstruction and finite element analysis (FEA) to

Intracrystalline deformation and slaty cleavage development in very low-grade slates from the Central Pyrenees [PDF]

, 1988
This thesis presents the results of a study on the role of intracrystalline deformation of phyllosilicates during slaty cleavage development. Chapter one gives an introduction to the problem being investigated. Slaty cleavage has been studied for over

Nasal soft‐tissue anatomy of Triceratops and other horned dinosaurs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Although ceratopsid dinosaurs possess a characteristically hypertrophied narial region, soft‐tissue anatomy associated with such a skeletal structure and their biological significance remain poorly understood. The present study provides the first comprehensive hypothesis on the soft‐tissue anatomy in the ceratopsid rostrum based on the Extant ...

Effects of mechanical properties of the underburden on induced seismicity along a basement fault during hydrogen storage in a depleted reservoir

iScience
Summary: This study models the geomechanical deformation of a depleted gas field, wherein gaseous hydrogen is stored in a North Sea reservoir, and is cyclically injected and withdrawn.

Paleopathology of a putative colossosaurian caudal vertebra (Neosauropoda: Titanosauria) from the Presidente Prudente Formation, Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

Straight impact crater rim segments on Mercury

Journal of Maps
The formation of straight impact crater rims is widely accepted to be influenced by preexisting lithospheric structure. We investigate the distribution and orientations of straight crater rim segments across Mercury. We devise a mapping workflow aimed at

Thick-Skinned and Thin-Skinned Tectonics: A Global Perspective

Geosciences, 2017
This paper gives an overview of the large-scale tectonic styles encountered in orogens worldwide. Thin-skinned and thick-skinned tectonics represent two end member styles recognized in mountain ranges.
