Fig. 4. Cross-sectional longitudinal strain distributions in the radius from the
same intermediate-sized goat during a gallop (3.57 m s1) as
shown in Fig. 1. Five phases
are shown as percentage of time through stance: (A) 0%, (B) 25%, (C) 50%, (D)
75% and (E) 100%. Anatomical axes are labeled in A. The position of the
neutral axis is indicated by the heavy black line. The outline of the ulna is
included for reference, located caudo-lateral to the radius. The scale for the
color gradient goes from red for negative (compressive) strains to yellow near
zero strain and toward green for positive (tensile) strains.
