NEVA (Bio)Electromagnetics
NEVA EM constructs anatomical true-CAD cross-platform human models for electromagnetic, computational fluid dynamics, thermal, and structural simulations
The models are compatible with ANSYS software, Dassault Systèmes (SIMULIA Corporation) software, and other software packages. All tissue parts are also accessible in MATLAB® format.
Static VHP-Female model v2.2 - VHP-Female College - is also available to all interested professionals free of charge and is a product of NSF SBIR Phase I grant 1520168 and NIH/National Library of Medicine SBIR Phase I grant R43 LM012352-01A1
VERTEBRAL COLUMN: VHP-FEMALE 5.0 CAD MODEL
The vertebral column is one critical part part of the model. The vertebral column houses the spinal cord which consists of the innermost butterfly-shaped grey matter with nerve cell bodies, neuronal white matter tracts, and a surrounding cerebrospinal fluid. Although indeed simplified, our model is arguably one of the best vertebral column CAD models to date.
