Cyclic animation using partial differential equations
2010
The Visual Computer
The first consists of using attaching the set of curves to a skeletal system holding the animation for cyclic motions linked to a set mathematical expressions, the second one exploits the spine associated ...
The first of these approaches is implemented within a framework related to cyclic motions inherent to human-like characters, whereas the spine-based approach is focused on modelling the undulatory movement ...
The creation of believable character motion requires controls based on how real bodies work [13] . ...

Sketch-Based Interfaces and Modeling
We describe a sketch-based system for modeling 3D shapes based on a new multiresolution shape representation we call a layered mesh. ...
The simplest primitives are points and curves, which can be used to define several kinds of parameteric surface. Surfaces can be inflated or smoothly joined to produce a broad range of shapes. ...
While our skin primitive is based on the algorithm of Markosian et al. [MCCH99] , our implementation uses a static triangulation. ...

Shape manipulation using physically based wire deformations
2010
Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds
It defines a 3D model with profile curves, and uses spine curves generated from the profile curves to control the motion and global shape of 3D models. ...
With the proposed approach, global shape changes are achieved through manipulating spine wires, and local surface details are created by deforming profile wires. ...
Shape manipulation techniques based on curve deformations use wires to control surface shapes. ...

3D correction of AIS in braces designed using CAD/CAM and FEM: a randomized controlled trial
2017
Scoliosis and Spinal Disorders
On average, FEMBraces were 50% thinner and had 20% less covering surface than CtrlBraces while reducing T and L curves by 47 and 48%, respectively, compared to 25 and 26% for CtrlBraces. ...
For the test group, 3D reconstructions of the spine and patient's torso were additionally used to generate a personalized FEM to simulate and iteratively improve the brace design with the objective of ...
Background Orthopedic bracing is the conservative treatment generally prescribed to control curve progression in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) showing curves between 20°and 40°of Cobb angle [1 ...

Determination of the human spine curve based on laser triangulation
2015
BMC Medical Imaging
Manual determination of the spine curve, which was based on palpation of the thoracic and lumbar spinous processes, was found to be an appropriate way to validate the method. ...
The main objective of the present method was to automatically obtain a spatial curve of the thoracic and lumbar spine based on a 3D shape measurement of a human torso with developed scoliosis. ...
The determination of spatial spine curve was performed by visual estimation based on the selection of the best spinous process locations, which were characterized by bumps and dips on the back surface. ...

We developed a new force-driven controller that automatically adjusts the probe's pose relative to the skin surface to ensure a good acoustic coupling between the probe and skin. ...
The angles of spinal deformity measured on spinal reconstruction images were similar for both methods, implying that they equally reflect human anatomy. ...
According to these anatomical differences, the pressure applied by the Fig. 6 : The probe fixed rotation adjustment based on the shape of the following surface. ...

Computer graphics forum (Print)
Portions of the dissertation, or preliminary mathematical models and experiments on deformation driven with non-stretchable spine curve, have been published as ...
This dissertation dedicates to introducing spine-based deformation: Any distortion to the shape is controlled by a low dimensional proxy, which is a spine curve or surface. ...
Second in the transferring step, we need to consider the stretching in two directions on the spine surface instead of one on the spine curve. ...

pre-print
Two human raters measured each subject's spinous process angles (SPA) on robotic and manual coronal images. ...
Conclusions: This study demonstrated that scoliosis deformity angles measured on ultrasound images obtained with robotic scanning are comparable to those obtained by manual scanning. ...
For example, the thoracic part of the spine generally has larger curves in the sagittal view than the lumbar part; thus, a larger control gain is needed. 25,774 images were used for training and testing ...
