Release Name: Statistical Shape Model

Release Notes

The statistical shape model was developed using 50 natural healthy knees (25 males, 25 females) consisting of the distal femur, proximal tibia, and patella bone as well as associated articular surface cartilages. Attachment sites and line-of-actions for select soft tissue structures were also included. Local coordinate systems for each bone are represented as triads using 1D beam elements. Alignment of the joint is in the MRI as-scanned position. Bones are modeled as 2D surface meshes using R3D3 tri elements. Cartilages are modeled as C3D8R hexahedral elements and soft tissue attachment sites as nodes (no elements). All models created in Matlab. Open Source Option: DU_SSM.m Source code provided for statistical shape model of the knee. Option to generate training set, PC modes and user-defined new instances Note: Includes bones and ligament attachments, but does not include cartilage as it requires mesh morphing with Hypermesh File Names for a representative input file deck. All files created in Abaqus input format (.inp).
