The reliability of solid rocket motor grain structure during solidification cooling is analyzed. First, a three-dimensional parametric modeling of the grain is carried out by ANSYS finite element software. The dangerous point and dangerous moment can...
Since their invention, tissue expanders, which are designed to trigger additional skin growth, have revolutionised many reconstructive surgeries. Currently, however, the sole quantitative method to assess skin growth requires skin excision. Thus, in ...

PURPOSE: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a chronic disease that may require correction surgery. The finite element method (FEM) is a popular option to plan the outcome of surgery on a patient-based model. However, it requires considerable computin...
Bone segmentation is an important step to perform biomechanical failure load simulations on in-vivo CT data of patients with bone metastasis, as it is a mandatory operation to obtain meshes needed for numerical simulations. Segmentation can be a tedi...
