Fitton, Laura; Proa, Miguel; Rowland, Charlie; Toro Ibacache, Viviana; O'Higgins, Paul (Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)In recent years finite element analysis (FEA) has emerged as a useful tool for the analysis of skeletal form-function relationships. While this approach has obvious appeal for the study of fossil specimens, such material ...

Toro Ibacache, Viviana; Zapata Muñoz, Víctor; O'Higgins, Paul (Wiley, 2015)To carry out functional simulations of the masticatory system that aim to predict strain magnitudes it is important to apply appropriate jaw-elevator muscle forces. Force magnitude estimation from directly measured muscle ...

Toro Ibacache, Viviana; Fitton, Laura C.; Fagan, Michael J.; O'Higgins, Paul (Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)Finite element analysis (FEA) is a modelling technique increasingly used in anatomical studies investigating skeletal form and function. In the case of the cranium this approach has been applied to both living and fossil ...
