Objective
Develop an interactive tutorial for use with the IA-FEMesh module in Slicer3. This tutorial will outline the steps required for using the building block approach developed for this module. An example dataset for the proximal phalanx from a cadaveric specimen will be used as the data for the tutorial. At the end of the tutorial, users should be able to mesh any arbitrary structure from a surface defining the object of interest.
Approach, Plan
This tutorial will walk users through the multiple stages of model development that is initiated from a surface defining the region of interest. This will include
- Building block creation and editing
- Mesh seed specification
- Mesh generation
- Mesh quality visualization and improvement
- Definition of Node/Element sets
- Assignment of material properties
- Assignment of Forces/ Boundary conditions
- Saving of results
Progress
A tutorial has been developed and data is available for tutorial
