Three different human femoro-tibial characters are selected as functionally relevant and derived hominid characters: femoral bicondylar angle, shape of the femoral distal epiphysis, and the tibial insertion of the lateral meniscus. The timing and mode of formation of these characters are investigate

β¦ Synopsis
His research is on the integration of function, growth and phylogeny in skeletal tissues, with a particular focus on using experimental laboratory studies to test behavioral and phylogenetic hypotheses based on hominid skeletal morphologies.

In this paper, we investigate the application of the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) to two classes of axisymmetric potential problems. In the ΓΏrst, the boundary conditions as well as the domain of the problem, are axisymmetric, and in the second, the boundary conditions are arbitrary. In both
A proof is given of the existence of an approximate Complex Variable Boundary Element Method solution for a Birichlet problem. This constructive proof can be used as a basis for numerical calculations. @ 1996
The problem of partitioning grid-based applications for parallel computing can be solved easily and intuitively in a logic programming language such as Prolog, using only the single assignment property of the logic variable, and not the backtracking. We show that such a logic program can be transfor
