Figure 1


Fig. 1. Strain gauge placement in Polypterus endlicherii. Single-element strain gauges were bonded across the interfrontal (IF), interparietal (IP) and frontoparietal (FP) sutures. Strips of TeflonTM were placed along each suture before bonding the gauges to prevent gluing the suture shut. Due to space constraints, a single rosette gauge was glued to the left frontal bone (Fr), with the Ea component aligned with the FP gauge, and the Ec component parallel to the IF gauge. Pa, parietal; Eb, measured bone strain at 45° to Ea and Ec.
