Pectoral fin proprioception is tuned to fin mechanics
Meeting Abstract 21.5 Sunday, Jan. 4 14:30 Pectoral fin proprioception is tuned to fin mechanics AIELLO, B.R.*; WESTNEAT, M.W.; HALE, M.H.; Univ. of Chicago braiello@uchicago.edu Proprioception, the sense of movement and position of one’s body elements in space, is critical to the motor performance of many animals. Proprioception has been documented in the pectoral fins of fishes; […]
Passive wing morphing as a consequence of centrifugal acceleration in flapping wings
Meeting Abstract 21.7 Sunday, Jan. 4 15:00 Passive wing morphing as a consequence of centrifugal acceleration in flapping wings STOWERS, AK*; LENTINK, D; Stanford University; Stanford University astowers@stanford.edu Birds, bats and insects are able to maneuver in cluttered environments that are practically impossible for flying robots to navigate. In these situations, animals are able to morph their […]
Mixed chains of safety factors in the limb bones of salamanders implications for differential limb function in the evolution of terrestrial locomotion
Meeting Abstract 21.4 Sunday, Jan. 4 14:15 Mixed chains of safety factors in the limb bones of salamanders: implications for differential limb function in the evolution of terrestrial locomotion KAWANO, S.M.*; BLOB, R.W.; NIMBioS; Clemson Univ. skawano@nimbios.org The capacity of vertebrate bones to resist loads has important implications for their functional capabilities. Bones can often resist loads […]
