This is a repository for software packages that we have developed during the course of our research and are providing to the community free of charge. If you need software support, please visit the software forums or contact the software developer indicated for each package.




FEBio

FEBio is a software tool that uses the finite element method for solving nonlinear large deformation problems in solid biomechanics. It is specifically aimed at solving problems in the field of biomechanics, by providing appropriate modeling scenarios, constitutive models and boundary conditions.

Postview is a finite element post-processor that is designed to post-process the results from FEBio. It offers the user a graphical user interface to visualize and analyze the FE model. Several tools are available to assist the user in this process, such as surface plots, isosurface plots, vector plots, plane cuts and many other.

Hip Image Data


It is difficult to obtain high resolution image data of human diarthrodial joints. This is due to the effort required to obtain IRB approval, to recruit subjects and to perform the image acquisition. Therefore, we have made CT arthrogram image datasets available from the 10 subjects included in our finite element analysis of cartilage contact stresses. We hope that the availability of these image datasets will assist other investigators who wish to study the articular cartilage and/or mechanics of the normal human hip joint.

MPM For Cell Biomechanics


The implicit material point method (MPM) is a research code being developed for studying cell biomechanics. MPM is one component within the Uintah Computational Framework (UCF) which is, in turn, one of the software packages within the SCIRun Problem Solving Environment (PSE).
