Development of a Biofidelic Human Head Model from MRI data

Traumatic brain injuries from head impact are a major issue across areas such as defence, automotive and sports, and can be costly to research using experimental testing. These injuries can be explored, though, through 3D models created from scan data and computer simulations.

Simpleware has worked with the US Naval Research Laboratory to develop a cutting-edge human head model suitable for a wide range of head injury simulations. Major innovations of the modelling workflow include the ability to generate multiple meshes from the same pre-segmented data (rather than fixed meshes), and the level of detail and flexibility possible for adding new parts and integrating CAD with image data.
