Design of the testing procedure for investigation of Eryx conicus dermal armour characteristics

Design of the testing procedure for investigation of Eryx conicus dermal armour characteristics

The aim of this work is to develop an experimental method suitable for the mechanical testing of highly non-standard biological samples such as snake skin with osteoderms. The objective of the method is to determine, whether the osteoderms provide a protective function for the animal in its natural...
