In order to improve realism in middle ear (ME) finite element modeling (FEM), comprehensive and precise morphological data are needed. To date, micro-scale X-ray computed tomography (\mu CT) recordings have been used as geometric input data…
The human phonation process be modeled using the Finite Element Method (FEM) which provides a detailed representation of the voice production process. A software implementation in C++ using FEM (openCFS) has been used to simulate the…
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a valuable imaging method in dental diagnostics that provides information not available in traditional 2D imaging. However, interpretation of CBCT images is a time-consuming process that requires a…
High-resolution voxel-based micro-finite element ($\mu$FE) models derived from $\mu$CT imaging enable detailed investigation of bone mechanics but remain computationally challenging at anatomically relevant scales. This study presents a…
Medical imaging is vital in computer assisted intervention. Particularly cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) with defacto real time and mobility capabilities plays an important role. However, CBCT images often suffer from artifacts, which…
For the finite element simulation of thin soft biological tissues in dynamics, shell elements, compared to volume elements, can capture the whole tissue thickness at once, and feature larger critical time steps. However, the capabilities of…
Several authors have employed Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for stress and strain analysis in orthopaedic biomechanics. Unfortunately, the use of three-dimensional models is time consuming and consequently the number of analysis to be…

Accurate tooth volume segmentation is a prerequisite for computer-aided dental analysis. Deep learning-based tooth segmentation methods have achieved satisfying performances but require a large quantity of tooth data with ground truth. The…
Creating tetrahedral meshes with anatomically accurate surfaces is critically important for a wide range of model-based neuroimaging modalities. However, computationally efficient brain meshing algorithms and software are greatly lacking.…
A 3D biomechanical finite element model of the face is presented. Muscles are represented by piece-wise uniaxial tension cable elements linking the insertion points. Such insertion points are specific entities differing from nodes of the…
Source analysis of Electroencephalography (EEG) data requires the computation of the scalp potential induced by current sources in the brain. This so-called EEG forward problem is based on an accurate estimation of the volume conduction…
In the 80's, biomechanicians were asked to work on Computer Aided Surgery applications since orthopaedic surgeons were looking for numerical tools able to predict risks of fractures. More recently, biomechanicians started to address soft…
