Abstract In a large sample of adult crab‐eating macaques, we quantified sexual dimorphism in size, shape, and covariance across the whole skull and among anatomical regions of the cranium and mandible. All regions showed significant mean sex differences, but the magnitude of size and shape dimorphism varied substantially.

Preliminary Estimates of Flow Patterns Around Hulls With Yaw Angle
Escort tugs use the combination of yaw angle and azimuthing thrusters to generate the hydrodynamic forces that are used to control a disabled tanker.

Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Study on Wind Load Distribution and Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Yawed Cylinder
The flow mechanism around a yawed cylinder is highly complex. While previous research has confirmed the limitation of the Independence Principle at high yaw angles, the specific flow phenomena beyond 20° yaw remain poorly understood, particularly ...

Three‐dimensional digital analysis of musteloid masticatory muscle architecture
Musteloids span an enormous breadth of dietary modes within a single superfamily. In this study, we utilize digital dissection techniques to reconstruct the internal 3D anatomy of muscles within the musteloid feeding apparatus, and explore how dietary specializations might alter the size, orientation, and curvature of fascicles therein.

Yaw-torque level does not influence response polarity.
Responses are grouped as (syn,cwcue), (anti,cwcue), (syn,ccwcue) and (anti,ccwcue). Histograms of CS yaw-torque values generated within 1s before the displacements show no difference (N = 138).

Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots
Abstract Parrots (Order: Psittaciformes) are renowned for their high bite force (BF) and morphological correlates thereof, including a highly mobile skull and two unique mandibular adductor muscles—m. pseudomasseter and m. ethmomandibularis, with the former being hypothesized to increase force output.

Numerical Simulation of a Bird-Inspired UAV Which Turns Without a Tail Through Proverse Yaw
This study numerically explores a bird-inspired tail-less unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) design which can turn through proverse yaw by using a bell-shaped spanload wing configuration. The research methodology consists of two phases.

Feedback control for yaw angle with input nonlinearity via input-state linearization
This paper discusses the yaw control of small-size unmanned helicopter. The yaw dynamics of helicopter involve input nonlinearity, time-varying parameters and the couplings between main and tail rotor.
