Functional anatomy, jaw mechanisms, and feeding behavior of Dunkleosteus terrelli (Placodermi, Arthrodira)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...

Descriptive, comparative, and functional anatomy of the facial musculature in cattle (Bos taurus)

open access: yesThe 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.

Identification of major congenital malformations based on healthcare databases in France: A proof‐of‐concept study using the epi‐meres nationwide mother–child register

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Besides registries, healthcare databases can provide useful information for assessing the frequency of major congenital malformations (MCMs) and investigating their risk factors, particularly medication exposures. This study aimed to assess the validity of MCMs identification based on French national, comprehensive healthcare databases ...

THE DECISION OF PROBLEMS WITH UNILATERAL CONSTRAINTS AND CULON'S FRICTION UNDER THE DYNAMIC LOAD

open access: yesStructural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and Buildings, 2011
The numerical approach to the decision of dynamic problems with unilateral constraints and Culon's friction is offered. The decision is formulated on the basis of step-by-step analysis (in time) method with use of frame contact finite elements.

Numerical modelling of sandwich panels with a non-continuous soft core

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The paper presents the problem of static analysis of sandwich structures with a non-continuous soft core. In the numerical 3D FE models, the core is divided into separated parts. The contact between these parts has the form of unilateral constraints. The

Integrated transportation – inventory models: A review

open access: yesOperations Research Perspectives, 2019
As decision-making practices in industry shift from isolated, unilateral department decisions to multiparty supply chain planning, integrated modelling techniques have risen in popularity.

Standard Inelastic Shocks and the Dynamics of Unilateral Constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
This paper is devoted to mechanical systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom let $q^1, \ldots, q^n$ denote (possibly local) coordinates inthe configuration manifold $Q$. In addition to the constraints, bilateral and frictionless, which have permitted such a finite-dimensional parametrization of $Q$ , we assume the system submitted to a finite

Reciprocity on the Edge of Distance Paradox: How Sustainability Motives and Hypocrisy Shape Consumer Responses to Nearshoring

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing interest in corporate relocation decisions and sustainability, the existing literature is limited in its consumer‐centric approach. Integrating social exchange theory and construal level theory, this research investigates how consumers perceive sustainability‐driven nearshoring motives (i.e., socio‐economic vs.

EQUILIBRIUM STATE ANALYSIS OF A SYSTEM WITH UNILATERAL CONSTRAINTS BY FINITE DISPLACEMENTS

open access: yesStructural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and Buildings, 2010
A stability problem for an elastic structure subjected to conservative and active forces is considered. The structure has unilateral constraints and initial imperfections. An example of a system with two degrees of freedom shows that in general case, the

Theoretical Study of a Multidimensional Pressureless Model with Unilateral Constraint [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, 2017
Summary: The aim of this paper is to extend to multidimensions the study of a pressureless model of a gas system with unilateral constraint. Several difficulties are added with respect to the one-dimensional case. Indeed the geometry of the dynamics of blocks cannot be conserved and to solve this problem, we approximate the motion of each block by ...
