The Mammalian Jaw A Mechanical Analysis Greaves Hardback 9781107016224

The Mammalian Jaw

A Mechanical Analysis

Using simple mechanical models, this book examines the structural features and evolution of the mammalian jaw mechanism.

Walter Stalker Greaves (Author)

9781107016224, Cambridge University Press

Hardback, published 19 July 2012

126 pages

25.4 x 17.8 x 1.1 cm, 0.4 kg

Mammalian skull structure is notably diverse; however at a basic level the jaw mechanism is remarkably similar, if not essentially the same, in the majority of mammals. Using simple models that are compared with real animals at every step, this book examines the basic structural features of the mammalian jaw mechanism from a mechanical point of view. It explores how the mechanical constraints placed on the jaw have contributed to the evolution of an efficient basic structure, used by many mammals, which precludes mechanical difficulties and uses a minimum amount of bone tissue. Throughout the book the emphasis is on conceptual understanding, with explanations l]
