Abstract | The paper discusses the application of 3D solid volumetric finite element models to surgery simulation. In particular it introduces three new ideas for solving the problem of achieving real time performance for these models. The simulation system we have developed is described and we demonstrate real time deformation using the methods developed in the paper |
