Biomechanical interpretations of some bony structures in the skull.
For the causal understanding of some evolutive morphological particularities at the level of the lateral wall of orbits (in mammals and in man), the authors have resorted to biomechanical interpretations of bony structures at the cranium level. To this effect some stress factors as well as the modeling effect on the local bone morphogenesis have been analysed.
