Model-based assessment of muscle forces and strain distribution in the femur of Cabot's Tragopans (Tragopan caboti)

The hindlimbs play a crucial role in bird locomotion, making the biomechanical properties of the musculoskeletal system in these limbs a focal point for researchers studying avian behaviour. However, a comprehensive analysis of the mechanical performance within the long bones of hindlimbs during loc...
