Meshing Interface

Meshing interface

General Parameters

The meshing interface is called by the Mesh organ button. It meshes the selected organ and writes it to a D00 file.

Name

Name of the D00 file which will be generated

Elements

Type of elements to generate: SHELL3N, SHELL4N, TETRA4 or SOLID BRICK

Slices, voxel and pixel

Divisions of Space

The organ is described by voxels (3D cubes representing a “thick” pixel).  The number and the shape of generated elements are directly linked to the number of voxels and their proportions.  The X, Y and Z values, describing the number of rows of voxels on each axis, can be modified to adjust the number of voxels describing the organ.

Use Image Real Ratio

Use the scanner values to compute the division of space and obtain cubic voxels. Allows the division of space modification by using the cursor.

Quality Improvements

Three different improvement types leading to improving elements quality and mesh biofidelity can be performed. you decide the number of application and the strength of the modification for each of them.

Raw Data Smoothing

Smooth the data obtained directly from the slices.

3D Surface Smoothing (only for TETRA4, SHELL4N and BRICK)

Smooth the 3D reconstruction obtained from the slices data.

Elements Quality Improvement

Improve the element's shape and quality by moving the nodes locally.
