A comparative study of aortic wall stress using finite element analysis for ruptured and non-ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms.

TL;DR: In this paper, the 3D geometries of abdominal aortic aneurysms were derived from CT scans of 27 patients (12 ruptured and 15 non-ruptured).
Journal ArticleDOI

The earliest evidence for anatomically modern humans in northwestern Europe

TL;DR: It is shown, using stratigraphic, chronological and archaeological data, that a fragment of human maxilla from the Kent’s Cavern site, UK, dates to the earlier period, and represents the oldest known anatomically modern human fossil in northwestern Europe, fills a key gap between the earliest dated Aurignacian remains and the earliest human skeletal remains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Evolution of the Feeding System in Rodents

TL;DR: The results show that the morphology of the skull and masticatory muscles have allowed squirrels to specialise as gnawers and guinea pigs as chewers, but that rats are high-performance generalists, which helps explain their overwhelming success as a group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessing mechanical function of the zygomatic region in macaques: validation and sensitivity testing of finite element models

TL;DR: Finite element models of two crania of Macaca fascicularis were developed and it was indicated that the presence of a zygomatico‐temporal suture in the model produced strains more similar to experimental values than a completely separated or fused arch.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a (silent) speech recognition system for patients following laryngectomy

TL;DR: A speech system for patients who have lost laryngeal function is planned, which will be developed by means of a dynamic time warping algorithm using dynamic programming.
