The albertosaurines Albertosaurus sarcophagus and Gorgosaurus libratus are among the best represented tyrannosaurids, known from nearly complete growth series. These specimens provide an opportunity to study mandibular biomechanical properties and tooth morphology to infer changes in feeding behaviour and bite force through ontogeny in tyrannosaurids ...

SUBFAMILY TYRANNOSAURINAE (Osborn, 1906) Allosaur-like Indosuchus and knobby-nosed Alioramus are rather odd, but the rest of the tyrannosaur genera and species are distinctly uniform. Still a few distinctive characters, including size, robustness, and features of the skull mark these genera and species.

Visualising muscle anatomy using three-dimensional computer models - an example using the head and neck muscles of Sphenodon [PDF]
We demonstrate how the computer-based technique of multi-body dynamics analysis (MDA) can be used to create schematic, but informative three-dimensional (3D) representations of complex muscle anatomy.

A new tyrannosaur with evidence for anagenesis and crocodile-like facial sensory system [PDF]
A new species of tyrannosaurid from the upper Two Medicine Formation of Montana supports the presence of a Laramidian anagenetic (ancestor-descendant) lineage of Late Cretaceous tyrannosaurids.
