Abstract
ArtiSynth (www.artisynth.org) is a 3D biomechanical simulation platform that supports both multibody and finite element (FE) methods, allowing users to model within a single application both large scale components (e.g., rigid bodies, point-to-point muscles) and small scale components requiring stress/strain analysis. It provides a Java-based API for model creation, together with a highly interactive graphical interface, and has been used to simulate numerous human biomechanical structures, including the head and neck, spine, lower limb, foot and shoulder. During this webinar, attendees will learn about:
Short Bio
The webinar is conducted by Dr. Benedikt Sagl and Dr. John Lloyd. Dr. Sagl is a senior scientist at theUniversity Clinic of Dentistry at the Medical University of Vienna. His research focuses on computational investigations of masticatory system biomechanics. He is a contributor to ArtiSynth, having worked on both model development and the implementation of the systemā€™s inverse dynamics feature for computing muscle activations. Dr. Lloyd is a research engineer in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of British Columbia and is the principal developer of ArtiSynth.
