TLDR
A subject-specific FEM of a rhesus macaque mandible was constructed, loaded and validated using in vivo data from the same animal, and the relative strain magnitudes were similar to those recorded in vivo for all strain locations.About:

Biomechanical implications of cortical elastic properties of the macaque mandible.
TL;DR: Results showed regional variations in the elastic properties of macaque mandibular cortical bone that have both similarities and differences with that of humans and baboons.

What Does Musculoskeletal Mechanics Tell Us About Evolution of Form and Function in Vertebrates
TL;DR: Mechanical analysis of the skeleton may be used to determine the function of extinct organisms but also higher level questions such as niche partitioning, the evolutionary relationship between form, function and disparity, rates of functional evolution and the influence of constraints on morphological evolution.

Comparative biomechanics of the Pan and Macaca mandibles during mastication: Finite element modelling of loading, deformation and strain regimes
Amanda L. Smith,Chris Robinson,Andrea B. Taylor,Olga Panagiotopoulou,Julian L. Davis,Carol V. Ward,William H. Kimbel,Zeresenay Alemseged,Callum F. Ross +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the mechanical behaviour of the mandibles of Pan and Macaca during mastication using finite element modelling, and calculated muscle forces using species-specific measures of physiolo...
The Upright Battle: Morphological Trends of the Bipedal Pelvis
TL;DR: The Upright Battle: Morphological Trends of the Bipedal Pelvis as discussed by the authors is an excellent overview of the evolution of the bipedal pelvic anatomy. But it is not a complete study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fracture Fixation Technique and Chewing Side Impact Jaw Mechanics in Mandible Fracture Repair
TL;DR: This study is the first to use realistic in silico simulation of chewing to quantify the effects of Champy and biplanar techniques of angle fracture fixation, and shows that more rigid, biPlanar fixation results in lower strain magnitudes in the miniplates, the bone around the screws, and in the fracture zone.

CircStat: A Matlab Toolbox for Circular Statistics
TL;DR: The CircStat toolbox for MATLAB is implemented which provides methods for the descriptive and inferential statistical analysis of directional data and analyzes a dataset from neurophysiology to demonstrate the capabilities of the Circstat toolbox.

The elastic and ultimate properties of compact bone tissue
TL;DR: The use of a tranversely isotropic model is tested for the elastic behavior of bovine and human bone and the five independent constants of this model are determined.

Bones: Structure and Mechanics
TL;DR: Copiously illustrated, engagingly written, and assuming little in the way of prior knowledge or mathematical background, Bones is both an ideal introduction to the field and also a reference sure to be frequently consulted by practicing researchers.

Young's modulus of trabecular and cortical bone material: ultrasonic and microtensile measurements.
TL;DR: The results suggest that when considered mechanically, cortical and trabecular bone are not the same material.
