Project Description

The primary purpose of this study is to develop a new framework for understanding the validity of computational models of soft and hard tissue biomechanics and physiology. We will develop biologically validated biomechanical models of rabbit mastication. Models will be firmly rooted in detailed musculoskeletal anatomy, muscle physiology and the mechanics of mastication.
