Figure 5. Kentrosaurus aethiopicus CAD model in lateral (1), dorsal (2), caudal (3), and cranial (4) views. Zebra stripe coloring highlights the separation into functional sections for the CAE simulation. 5. detailed models of the tail in lateral view. Versions top to bottom: 'slim', 'medium', 'croc'. One section represents one caudal vertebra plus the corresponding soft tissues. 6. Detailed 'slim' model and simplified five-segment model of the tail superimposed, in strong lateral flexion. Note how five segments suffice to roughly similar overall curvature. Total length of the model (snout to tail tip) 4.77 m.
