Salient features in locomotor evolutionary adaptations of proboscideans revealed via the differential scaling of limb long bones

Valery B. Kokshenev, Per Christiansen

The standard differential scaling of proportions in limb long bones (length against circumference) is applied to a phylogenetically wide sample of the Proboscidea, Elephantidae and…

Scaling functional patterns of skeletal and cardiac muscles: New non-linear elasticity approach

Valery B. Kokshenev

Responding mechanically to environmental requests, muscles show a surprisingly large variety of functions. The studies of in vivo cycling muscles qualified skeletal muscles into fo…

Key principle of the efficient running, swimming, and flying

Valery B. Kokshenev

Empirical observations indicate striking similarities among locomotion in terrestrial animals, birds, and fish, but unifying physical grounds are lacking. When applied to efficient…

To the problem of cross-bridge tension in steady muscle shortening and lengthening

Valery B. Kokshenev

Despite the great success of the Huxley sliding filament model proposed half a century ago for actin-myosin linkages (cross-bridges), it fails to explain the force-velocity behavio…

On Chaotic Dynamics in Rational Polygonal Billiards

Valery B. Kokshenev

We discuss the interplay between the piece-line regular and vertex-angle singular boundary effects, related to integrability and chaotic features in rational polygonal billiards. T…

Insights into the superdiffusive dynamics through collision statistics in periodic Lorentz gas and Sinai billiard

Valery B. Kokshenev, Eduardo Vicentini

We report on the stationary dynamics in classical Sinai billiard (SB) corresponding to the unit cell of the periodic Lorentz gas (LG) formed by square lattice of length and dis…
