Cranial sutures are an essential part of the growing skull, allowing bones to increase in size during growth, with their morphology widely believed to be dictated by the forces and displacements that they experience. The zygomaticotemporal suture in... Read More about Development and three-dimensional morphology of the zygomaticotemporal suture in primate skulls.

The effects of cervical muscle fatigue on balance - A study with elite amateur rugby league players (2014)
Journal Article

Neck muscle fatigue has been shown to alter an individual’s balance in a similar way to that reported in subjects suffering from neck pain or subjects that have suffered a neck injury. The main purpose of the present study was to quantify the effects... Read More about The effects of cervical muscle fatigue on balance - A study with elite amateur rugby league players.

© IMechE 2014. Bone remodelling is a vital process which enables bone to repair, renew and optimize itself. Disorders in the bone remodelling process are inevitably manifested in bone-related diseases, such as hypothyroidism, primary hyperparathyroid...

The skull is composed of many bones that come together at sutures. These sutures are important sites of growth, and as growth ceases some become fused while others remain patent. Their mechanical behaviour and how they interact with changing form and... Read More about Cranial sutures work collectively to distribute strain throughout the reptile skull.

Characteristics of atrial fibrillation cycle length predict restoration of sinus rhythm by catheter ablation (2013)
Journal Article
