Research Interest |
|
|
|
|
|
Computational aspects of medical
and clinical problems, specifically focusing on modeling, visualization
and simulation of human tissues including muscle, ligament, tendon,
nerve and skeleton. The purpose of presented studies is to develop
computational platforms to reconstruction and quantification of both
structural and functional properties of tissues with enhanced
reliability and consistency. Both cadaveric and in vivo assessments
(e.g., X-ray, Ultrasound, CT) are
accounted for. Pathological studies (e.g., tendon rupture, bone
deformity and muscle
atrophy) are also conducted. These studies are based on the active
collaboration with researchers from various disciplines : applied
mathematics, graphics, anatomy, biomechanics, kinesiology, orthopedics, radiology
and physical therapy. Other interest includes numerical
optimization, finite element method, fluid mechanics, continuum
mechanics and graphics. |
