LR-Spring Mass model for cardiac surgical simulation.
The purpose of the research conducted was to develop a real-time surgical simulator for preoperative planning of surgery in congenital heart disease. The main problem simulating procedures on cardiac morphology is the need for a large degree of detail and simulation speed. In combination with a demand for physically realistic real-time behaviour this gives us tradeoffs not easily balanced. The LR-Spring Mass model handles these constraints by the use of domain specific knowledge.
