Description
Fig. 7. Torsional loading transfer within the Gorgosaurus libratus arctometatarsus (right: TMP 94.12.602). Arrows reflect force directions, but not relative force or displacement magnitudes. a: Torsion (white arrows) translated into compression impinging on adjacent metatarsal. b: Anterior components (white) offset from compressional translation would cause anterolaterally directed tension on intermetatarsal ligaments (gray).
