  • Abstract
    Proposes a mass-spring model of a human thigh based on real data acquired. It addresses both the difficulties of determining the parameters of this model to fit the measurements and the computational demands. Implicit integration is used to update the model through time. The motivation behind this work is to provide accurate force-feedback for an echographic simulator that could be used to train practitioners to detect a thrombosis
