Researchers at the Biomimetics-Innovation-Center, Hochschule Bremen—City University of Applied Sciences, have made pioneering discoveries about how mechanical stress shapes the ultrastructure of ...

An international collaboration study reveals how evolution and locomotion patterns, such as bipedalism, shaped bone structures through proteins present in the bone matrix. The findings of the study, ...

New international study reveals how evolution and locomotion patterns, such as bipedalism, shaped bone structures through proteins present in the bone matrix. A new international study sheds light on ...

This textbook describes the biomechanics of bone, cartilage, tendons and ligaments. It is rigorous in its approach to the mechanical properties of the skeleton yet it does not neglect the biological ...

Fins and limbs and fins into limbs : the historical context, 1840-1940 / Peter J. Bowler -- Skeletal changes in the transition from fins to limbs / Michael I. Coates and Marcello Ruta -- A historical ...

Some animals seem to bend the rules of biology, and even physics, with skeletons that push the limits of what bones can do. From creatures that squeeze through impossibly tight spaces to those that ...
