- Decide action items for next meeting.
- Other.
Immediate Action Items:
Cleveland Clinic (Ahmet & Craig)
- Start testing in situ strain feature in relevance to its use in Open Knee(s).
- University of Utah (Steve)
- Prepare a draft of a manuscript about in situ strain feature.
Notes:
- Update on feature implementations.
- Based on the last conference call and CMBBE 2014 presentation, in situ strain feature is in good shape. The feature is currently provided as a plug-in. There were discussions to incorporate this this capability in the core of FEBio code (probably not). Steve will start working on the manuscript, the goal is to get a draft ready by the next meeting. The Cleveland Clinic team will start testing this feature to assure it fits their needs. This testing will also help evaluate the plug-in framework.
Steve changed how node sets are defined. This was necessitated by the need to handle XML file more effectively and it conforms to the way that element and surface sets are defined. Ahmet also noted that the new definition syntax may help Python scripting as well. Currently both the newer and older formats are supported. In PostView, one can select surfaces, node sets, or parts.
