This collection of original and edited articles include advances in: modeling and visualization; use of Frenet coordinates in shell modeling; surface features of etheromorphic ammonites; Santilli integral isonumbers and genonumbers and their isoduals; holographic reconstruction of fossil cephalopods; protein modeling via isomechanics; imaging shells via the scanning electron microscope: outline of hyperstructures for biological modeling; and other topics. This book is important for all conchology, biology and applied mathematics libraries.
