Maximum biting-force and chewing-speed!!!

| Hi,
I am interested in building a device, which is able to chew like a
human being. Therefore I have to know, what the maximum biting force
is? Which maximum-speed during the chewingprozess is to expect? I know
it is depending of the food property.
Would be nice if somebody could give me some information. The best
would be with some citations.
Thanks a lot for helping me.
Cheers Sebastian

We got it already.
Its my dog. Three bites and a quick swallow.

Look up gnathology. The field is already well-described, but not
exactly how you are approaching it!

45-46 miles an hour ......

If I can describe a silly analogy, supposing someone wanted to invent
a device that would hook onto your glasses, that would catch raindrops
falling off your nose to determine rainfall.
Well meteorologists would ask, "What for?"
We got it already.
Simpler too.

The first full-scale investigation into the effects of amalgam on
general health is taking place in Calgary. Dr. Vimy and Dr. Fritz
Lorscheider, the Chief of Physiology at the medical school, and a team
of other scientists began with sheep. They found that mercury from the
fillings travelled throughout the body, and in pregnant sheep into the
fetus.
The ADA says the Sheep Studies are seriously flawed. The World Health
Organization says the results are valid, and so do a number of
scientific journals. But the research that was most compelling was
presented to the American Physiological Society in Orlando last
October. It showed that on average, all six sheep used in the
experiment lost half their kidney function within 30 days of receiving
fillings.
When they moved on to monkeys, a much closer relative of man, Vimy and
Lorscheider found the same concentrations of mercury had occured. They
also found that the mercury had a bacteriological effect on monkeys. It
attacked their immune system. The kidney and bacteriological studies
are now being reviewed by the scientific community.
In all the experiments, Dr. Vimy used the same amalgam used in
dentist's offices. The amount was determined by the animal's body
weight. The preliminary result of human experiments showed no radical
differences between humans and animals. Drs. Vimy and Lorscheider have
joined a growing number of dentists, doctors, and scientists calling
for a total ban on amalgam. In this country, a ban would have to be
imposed by the Food and Drug Administration.

Its going to ber a short investigation.
Since 1995, Jan Drew has come up empty-handed!
