Interactive modelling of volumetric musculoskeletal anatomy [PDF]

ACM Transactions on Graphics, 2021
We present a new approach for modelling musculoskeletal anatomy. Unlike previous methods, we do not model individual muscle shapes as geometric primitives (polygonal meshes, NURBS etc.). Instead, we adopt a volumetric segmentation approach where every point in our volume is assigned to a muscle, fat, or bone tissue.

Modeling and Design of a Spring-loaded, Cable-driven, Wearable Exoskeleton for the Upper Extremity [PDF]

Modeling, Identification and Control, 2015
An approach to the design of wearable exoskeletons on the basis of simulation of the exoskeleton and a human body model is proposed in this paper. The new approach, addressing the problem of physical human-exoskeleton interactions, models and simulates ...
