- •
A method has been developed for load deformation experiments with limbs of large mammals.
- •
Applied force was measured with a force plate.
- •
Roentgen stereophotogrammetry was used to determine marker locations.
- •
Minute deformations in claws due to mechanical load could be measured.
- •
Quantification of deformations improves understanding of internal load distribution.
