From: Biomechanical bite simulation in Eucyon davisi (Mammalia, Canidae) and comparison with extant Canids
Von Mises stress values (in MPa) scaled by the Fi/Ac ratio of Eucyon davisi sampled along a sagittal plane passing through the mid-point of the nasal width in the three bite scenarios. Results are shown for a, canine; b, carnassial; c, molar bite simulations. The analogous anatomical sampling points (nasal, rostrum at infraorbital foramina, rostrum at anterior border of orbits, frontal region between postorbital processes, frontal region at the postorbital constriction, centre of the parietal bone, and most posterior region of the dorsal cranium) are plotted as percentages of total skull length measured in dorsal view.
