We combine nanoindentation and biomechanical modelling to investigate skull bone stiffness in Gallotia lizards, including extinct giant species, and its implications for palaeobiological inference. 📰 doi.org/10.3897/sjp.... 153

Jordi Marcé-Nogué @featunning.bsky.social · 24/02/2025With @tpuschel.bsky.social we wrote this text on #FEA models in #biomechanics: Models aren’t reality, just tools for specific questions. Comparing different models outside their context? Like apples & oranges. 📓Read more 👇rb.gySaying what is better when comparing apples and oranges" Models are not literal representations of reality but provide simplifications or substitutes of the events, scenarios or behaviours that are being studied or predicted.
