Figure 4.5. Strain distribution in left metatarsus of<br />

Gorgosaurus libratus (anterior view), loaded at 90 degrees<br />

to the substrate with forces four times body weight. Red<br />

lines point to high compressive strain (signified by bright<br />

yellow) on the proximal splint of MT III, and at the position<br />

of intermetarsal ligament correlates, visible on the<br />

anterolateral edge of MT III. Artifactual strain is evident on<br />

elements with long edges perpendicular to the compressive<br />

force (see text and Figure 4.4).
