11 p, 3.0 MB Broad-scale morpho-functional traits of the mandible suggest no hard food adaptation in the hominin lineage / Marcé Nogué, Jordi (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Püschel, Thomas (University of Oxford. School of Anthropology) ; Daasch, Alexander (University of Hamburg. Centrum für Naturkunde) ; Kaiser, Thomas (University of Hamburg. Centrum für Naturkunde)
An on-going debate concerning the dietary adaptations of archaic hominins and early Homo has been fuelled by contradictory inferences obtained using different methodologies. This work presents an extensive comparative sample of 30 extant primate species that was assembled to perform a morpho-functional comparison of these taxa with 12 models corresponding to eight fossil hominin species.

7 p, 1.5 MB The biomechanical importance of the scaphoid-centrale fusion during simulated knuckle-walking and its implications for human locomotor evolution / Püschel, Thomas (University of Oxford.

Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences)
Inferring the locomotor behaviour of the last common ancestor (LCA) of humans and African apes is still a divisive issue. An African great-ape-like ancestor using knuckle-walking is still the most parsimonious hypothesis for the LCA, despite diverse conflicting lines of evidence. [...]

Currently, there are no living platyrrhine primates inhabiting the main Caribbean islands. Nevertheless, the fossil record of this area has provided outstanding findings of different New World monkeys that were part of a diverse radiation exhibiting remarkably unusual morphologies. [...]

16 p, 1.5 MB Inferring locomotor behaviours in Miocene New World monkeys using finite element analysis, geometric morphometrics and machine-learning classification techniques applied to talar morphology / Püschel, Thomas (University of Manchester. School of Earth and Environmental Sciences) ; Marcé Nogué, Jordi (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Gladman, Justin T. (Duke University. Department of Engineering, Shared Materials Instrumentation Facility) ; Bobe, René (University of Oxford. Institute of Cognitive and Evolutionary Anthropology) ; Sellers, William I. (University of Manchester. School of Earth and Environmental Sciences)
The talus is one of the most commonly preserved post-cranial elements in the platyrrhine fossil record. Talar morphology can provide information about postural adaptations because it is the anatomical structure responsible for transmitting body mass forces from the leg to the foot. [...]

21 p, 911.3 KB The intervals method : a new approach to analyse finite element outputs using multivariate statistics / Marcé Nogué, Jordi (Universität Hamburg.

School of Earth and Environmental Sciences) ; Fortuny, Josep (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont)
Background. In this paper, we propose a new method, named the intervals' method, to analyse data from finite element models in a comparative multivariate framework. As a case study, several armadillo mandibles are analysed, showing that the proposed method is useful to distinguish and characterise biomechanical differences related to diet/ecomorphology. [...]
