Dear Subscribers,
My name is Paul Smith and I am a medical engineering graduate student at
Memorial University of Newfoundland. I am attempting to construct a
finite element model of the human femur and compare calculated strains
with experimental strains (I am carrying out mechanical tests as well).
I am using cat scan data to define both the geometry and material
properties of the femur. Up to this point I have been processing the cat
scan data through my own makeshift process to prepare Ansys input files.
This involves viewers, spredsheats, and an immense amount of user time.
I would like to have a more efficient process that generates FE meshes
from cat scan data. Any assistance or suggestions in this regard woud be
greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Paul S
