Differing trabecular bone architecture in dinosaurs and mammals contribute to stiffness and limits on bone strain

The largest dinosaurs were enormous animals whose body mass placed massive gravitational loads on their skeleton. Previous studies investigated dinosaurian bone strength and biomechanics, but the relationships between dinosaurian trabecular bone architecture and mechanical behavior has not been stud...
