Our paper about “Solving Dynamic Cosserat Rods with Frictional Contact Using the Shooting Method and Implicit Surfaces”, by Radhouane Jilani, Pierre-Frédéric Villard and Erwan Kerrien (Inria NGE) was just accepted to IROS 2024!
The paper “OpenCCO: An Implementation of Constrained Constructive Optimization for Generating 2D and 3D Vascular Trees” was just published in the Image Processing On Line (IPOL) journal. This is a joint work of Nicolas Passat (CReSTIC, Reims, PreSPIN partner) with Bertrand Kerautret (LIRIS, Lyon), Phuc Ngo (Loria, Nancy), Hugues Talbot (CentraleSupélec, Paris-Saclay) and Clara Jaquet.
Our paper about “An Orthogonal Collocation Method for Static and Dynamic Cosserat Rods”, by Radhouane Jilani, Pierre-Frédéric Villard and Erwan Kerrien (Inria NGE) was just accepted to IROS 2023!
Erwan Kerrien was invited to present the PreSPIN project as an introduction to the scientific days of the Network of Expertise #3 (RE3) of France Life Imaging. The RE3 network encourages and manages projects related to interventional imaging. (June 29, 2022)
Today we had our secondary plenary cession in the CREATIS lab!
Abstract: We present a two-step method to obtain a realistic mesh of vascular tree from only a few centerline points:(1) A parametric model of the vessels relying on physiological parameters is computed.
(2) A mesh with high-quality flow-oriented hexahedral cells is generated from the model. A user-friendly interface was developed to open the use of the proposed methods to non-expert users. It includes many tools to visualize and manually edit vascular trees at the different steps of the meshing pipeline.
The first plenary cession has been held in Nancy. A visit of the CIC-IT has been conducted in the morning. Then, in the afternoon, all the work-packages has been reviewed.
