Techniques for the Generation of 3D Finite Element Meshes of Human Organs
Abstract
The Finite Element Method (FEM) is probably the most used technique to model the mechanic properties of a body. The method needs a subdivision of the body (or domain) to be simulated in simpler geometrical structures. This subdivision is known as a mesh. This chapter gives a short introduction to the FEM, then continues with the most important aspects to consider for choosing a mesh like, element type, quality and node density. Finally this chapter reviews several meshing techniques currently used in the medical-field simulations. The techniques are classified and compared.
