Figure 14. External views of finite element stress in the duiker Cephalophus leucogaster (AMNH 52802).

Figure 14

Von Mises stresses of a 1360 N impact are depicted in lateral (A), dorsal (B), and ventral (C) views. Note artificial clipping occurs at the constraints. Higher stress occur at the impacts and around the brain than in Stegoceras (Figure 12), for the same collision force. The histogram depicts color coding for stress magnitudes, and the proportion of elements experiencing given levels of von Mises stress.
