Taking a stab at modelling canine tooth biomechanics in mammalian carnivores with beam theory and finite-element analysis

Canine teeth are vital to carnivore feeding ecology, facilitating behaviours related to prey capture and consumption. Forms vary with specific feeding ecologies; however, the biomechanics that drive these relationships have not been comprehensively investigated. Using a combination of beam theory an...
