...Dominique G. Roche; Eric D. Tytell; Paolo Domenici ABSTRACT Work carried out since the late 1970s has provided key insights into the comparative biomechanics, kinematics, behaviour and neurobiology of fish escape responses. An escape response is an ecologically important behaviour used by fishes...

This remarkable positive allometry can be explained via a biomechanical model that links bite forces with substantial size-specific changes...

...Luke N. Jessup; Luke A. Kelly; Andrew G. Cresswell; Glen A. Lichtwark ABSTRACT Many models have been developed to predict metabolic energy expenditure based on biomechanical proxies of muscle function. However, current models may only perform well for select forms of locomotion, not only because...
