	abstract = {In this work a new approach for the creation of Articulated Total Body (ATB) models for person-specific multi-body simulations is presented, with the main aim of overcoming limitations related to classical multi-ellipsoids ATB models, based on regression equations having only the weight and the height of the subject as input. The new methodology is based on a Statistical Shape Model (SSM), morphable according to up to 24 input parameters: the SSM was obtained from Principal Component Analysis (PCA), applied on a wide database of 3D human scans (CAESAR). The so obtained geometry can be segmented automatically to generate body segments with the respective inertial properties (mass, principal moments of inertia, and centres of mass location). The routine has been tested on a random set of 20 male subjects and the classical multi-ellipsoids models were compared to these in terms of inertial properties and 3D external geometry: the highest differences were registered at the abdomen and the thighs for what concerns the mass (60\%), principal moments (75\%) and centres of mass (50 mm) properties; the trunk, the shoulder and the calves are the most critical areas for the external geometry (average distance between the anthropomorphic and ellipsoids models equal to 50 mm). A contribution has been made to build person-specific multibody models. This is a valuable method since approximations made by multi-ellipsoidal models have resulted to be relevant at specific body areas, and personalised models can be a support to design and to forensic analyses.},

	year = {2022},
	abstract = {Preserving features of a surface as characteristic local shape properties captured e.g. by curvature, during non-rigid registration is always difficult where finding meaningful correspondences, assuring the robustness and the convergence of the algorithm while maintaining the quality of mesh are often challenges due to the high degrees of freedom and the sensitivity to features of the source surface. In this paper, we present a non-rigid registration method utilizing a newly defined semi-curvature, which is inspired by the definition of the Gaussian curvature. In the procedure of establishing the correspondences, for each point on the source surface, a corresponding point on the target surface is selected using a dynamic weighted criterion defined on the distance and the semi-curvature. We reformulate the cost function as a combination of the semi-curvature, the stiffness, and the distance terms, and ensure to penalize errors of both the distance and the semi-curvature terms in a guaranteed stable region. For a robust and efficient optimization process, we linearize the semi-curvature term, where the region of attraction is defined and the stability of the approach is proven. Experimental results show that features of the local areas on the original surface with higher curvature values are better preserved in comparison with the conventional methods. In comparison with the other methods, this leads to, on average, 75\%, 8\% and 82\% improvement in terms of quality of correspondences selection, quality of surface after registration, and time spent of the convergence process respectively, mainly due to that the semi-curvature term logically increases the constraints and dependency of each point on the neighboring vertices based on the point{\textquoteright}s degree of curvature.},

The accuracy of the three prediction methods was compared against hand measurements for 17 upper body dimensions of 37 subjects. The Intraclass Correlation Coefficient increases with 11.2\% for the Styku method compared to the other methods. For chest, hip and waist measurements, the basic method is reliable to predict 3D body dimensions and indicate the right size from an existing collection. For more accurate upper body dimensions as needed for producing custom made clothing, a 3D Styku scan can supply the desired input.},

An infrared heat lamp positioned above the manikin simulated the effect of solar load. The results from the experiments showed a convective cooling efficiency between 89{\%} and 96{\%} for open helmets and between 78{\%} and 83{\%} for closed helmets.

	abstract = {During a transcatheter aortic valve implantation, an axisymmetric implant is placed in an irregularly shaped aortic root. Implanting an incorrect size can cause complications such as leakage of blood alongside or through the implant. The aim of this study was to construct a method that determines the optimal size of the implant based on the three-dimensional shape of the aortic root. Based on the pre-interventional computed tomography scan of 89 patients, a statistical shape model of their aortic root was constructed. The weights associated with the principal components and the volume of calcification in the aortic valve were used as parameters in a classification algorithm. The classification algorithm was trained using the patients with no or mild leakage after their intervention. Subsequently, the algorithms were applied to the patients with moderate to severe leakage. Cross validation showed that a random forest classifier assigned the same size in 65 {\textpm} 7\% of the training cases, while 57 {\textpm} 8\% of the patients with moderate to severe leakage were assigned a different size. This initial study showed that this semi-automatic method has the potential to correctly assign an implant size. Further research is required to assess whether the different size implants would improve the outcome of those patients.},

It brings a skeletonized reference model of an individual human hand into correspondence with optical 3D surface scans of hands by sequentially applying articulation-based registration and elastic surface registration. Registered surfaces are then fed into a statistical shape modelling algorithm based on principal component analysis. The model-building technique has been evaluated on a dataset of optical scans from 100 healthy individuals, acquired with a 3dMD scanning system. It is shown that our registration framework provides accurate geometric and anatomical alignment, and that the shape basis of the resulting statistical model provides a compact representation of the specific population. The model also provides insight into the anatomical variation of the lower arm and hand, which is useful information for the design of well-fitting products.},

Currently, sizing systems are often based on traditional anthropometric data and generally use the variation of one or two key body dimensions directly related to the product. For products that need to closely fit a certain part of the body it is relevant to incorporate multiple key dimensions. This can be realized by a multivariate approach such as a Principal Component Analysis. Over the past decades, there has been an increase in incorporating 3D imaging in anthropometric surveys. In order to integrate the use of 3D anthropometry in product sizing, representative models are used to visualize the variability of the target population.

The technique is traditionally applied in a clinical setting with EEG caps and conductive gels to ensure proper contact through a subject{\textquoteright}s hair, and anticipate inter-subject anthropometric variations. Development of dry electrodes offers the potential to develop wearable EEG headsets. Such devices could induce medical and commercial applications. In this paper, we evaluate a prototype EEG headset that actively places electrodes at standardized positions on the subject{\textquoteright}s head, where each electrode is applied with equal pressure. The system is designed for use with dry electrodes. Our research delivers a better understanding on the link between general level of comfort and possible useful clear data signals, that can be used in brain computer interfaces (BCI). The present study is confined to the impact of adjustable electrodes pressure on level of user comfort only. Levels of discomfort are assessed in twelve participants, wearing an EEG headset with controllable electrode pressure exerted at 14 locations. Of-the-shelf dry electrodes are used. In a first session, evenly distributed pressure is increased and afterwards decreased in fixed time intervals, going from 10~kPa to 30~kPa and vice versa with steps of 2~kPa. In a second session, a subject specific acceptable pressure level is retrieved from the data of the first session and constantly applied for 30~min. During this intervention, level of discomfort is assessed in a VAS-scale. Additional observation and surveys yields insights on user experience in wearing a pressure exerting EEG headset.},

Like the underlying 3D scans, body models built from SSMs are typically represented with triangle meshes. Unfortunately, triangle meshes are not well supported by CAD software where spline geometry dominates. Therefore, we propose a methodology to convert databases of pre-corresponded triangle meshes into multi-patch B-spline SSMs. An evaluation on four 3D scan databases shows that our method is able to generate accurate and water-tight models while preserving inter-subject correspondences by construction. In addition, we demonstrate that such SSMs can be used to generate design manikins which can be readily used in SolidWorks for designing well conforming product parts.},

In this study, we evaluated variation in women{\textquoteright}s preference for male facial masculinity in a forced-choice experiment. Nearly 1200 participants scored preference for manipulated photos and surface scans. Between-individual variation in preferences were relatively small, especially for the evaluation of the surface scans. Nevertheless, preferences from the evaluations of photos and scans correlated positively, indicating that both stimuli provide similar biological information. Only few condition-dependent variables correlated significantly with preference for masculinity, and not all in predicted directions. Stronger preference for masculine male faces {\textendash} albeit only significant for the photos {\textendash} with higher own women attractiveness was observed as expected. Yet, for perceived infectability, consistently across the photos and scans, a negative association with preference for masculine faces was observed, which is opposite to theoretical predictions. In addition, no effects of pathogen exposure, germ aversion (a correlate of disgust), relational status, preference for short term relationships and sociosexuality were detected. Thus, overall, our study is in line with recent large studies that also find only very weak conditiondependent effects, if any.},

We did not find a system that is consistent and equally accurate across all joint angles for all activities (root mean square error up to 12.1 degrees). However, under some ideal conditions, the results are on par with optical mocap. Our recommendations for future research and development are to focus on tracking faster activities, activities in off-site conditions, and following standardized biomechanical models of joint angles.},

	abstract = {Background: Pedobarography produces large sets of plantar pressure samples that are routinely subsampled (e.g. using regions of interest) or aggregated (e.g. center of pressure trajectories, peak pressure images) in order to simplify statistical analysis and provide intuitive clinical measures.

Research Question: We hypothesize that these data reductions discard gait information that can be used to differentiate between groups or conditions.

Methods: To test the hypothesis of null information loss, we created an implementation of statistical parametric mapping (SPM) for dynamic plantar pressure datasets (i.e. plantar pressure videos). Our SPM software framework brings all plantar pressure videos into anatomical and temporal correspondence, then performs statistical tests at each sampling location in space and time. Novelly, we introduce non-linear temporal registration into the framework in order to normalize for timing differences within the stance phase. We refer to our software framework as STAPP: spatiotemporal analysis of plantar pressure measurements. Using STAPP, we tested our hypothesis on plantar pressure videos from 33 healthy subjects walking at different speeds.

Results: As walking speed increased, STAPP was able to identify significant decreases in plantar pressure at mid-stance from the heel through the lateral forefoot. The extent of these plantar pressure decreases have not previously been observed using existing plantar pressure analysis techniques.

Significance: We therefore conclude that the subsampling of plantar pressure videos - a task which led to the discarding of gait information in our study - can be avoided using STAPP.},

	pages = {1-13},
	abstract = {Background
Foot morphology has received increasing attention from both biomechanics researches and footwear manufacturers. Usually, the morphology of the foot is quantified by 2D footprints. However, footprint quantification ignores the foot{\textquoteright}s vertical dimension and hence, does not allow accurate quantification of complex 3D foot shape.

Methods
The shape variation of healthy 3D feet in a population of 31 adult women and 31 adult men who live in Belgium was studied using geometric morphometric methods. The effect of different factors such as sex, age, shoe size, frequency of sport activity, Body Mass Index (BMI), foot asymmetry, and foot loading on foot shape was investigated. Correlation between these factors and foot shape was examined using multivariate linear regression.

Results
The complex nature of a foot{\textquoteright}s 3D shape leads to high variability in healthy populations. After normalizing for scale, the major axes of variation in foot morphology are (in order of decreasing variance): arch height, combined ball width and inter-toe distance, global foot width, hallux bone orientation (valgus-varus), foot type (e.g. Egyptian, Greek), and midfoot width. These first six modes of variation capture 92.59\% of the total shape variation. Higher BMI results in increased ankle width, Achilles tendon width, heel width and a thicker forefoot along the dorsoplantar axis. Age was found to be associated with heel width, Achilles tendon width, toe height and hallux orientation. A bigger shoe size was found to be associated with a narrow Achilles tendon, a hallux varus, a narrow heel, heel expansion along the posterior direction, and a lower arch compared to smaller shoe size. Sex was found to be associated with differences in ankle width, Achilles tendon width, and heel width. Frequency of sport activity was associated with Achilles tendon width and toe height.

Conclusion
A detailed analysis of the 3D foot shape, allowed by geometric morphometrics, provides insights in foot variations in three dimensions that can not be obtained from 2D footprints. These insights could be applied in various scientific disciplines, including orthotics and shoe design.},

	title = {Screw fixation of simulated scaphoid waist fractures: a biomechanical comparison of two screw lengths.},
	year = {2017},
	abstract = {Background: 
Sixty percent of carpal bone fractures affect the scaphoid. These fractures typically occur in a young and male population, with a mean age of 25 years. Eighty percent of scaphoid fractures are located at the waist and the majority of these fractures is nondisplaced and stable. The poor healing capacity of scaphoid fractures, frequently causes delayed- or nonunion, leading to impaired function, early degenerative changes and chronic wrist pain.. Adequate treatment is therefore essential.
Scaphoid fractures can be managed with a cast or with screw fixation.  The latter offers a shorter time of immobilisation with a faster return to function, whilst having the same long-term outcome. Ideal screw length is an area of discussion. Theoretically, longer screws provide more stability, but there is a higher risk of protrusion of the screw in the cartilage resulting in more adverse effects. 

Objectives: The goal of this study was to compare the fixation strength for long and short screws in order to evaluate if the choice for the longer screw is worth the increased risk of protrusion.

Study design \& methods: Thirteen pairs of fresh frozen cadaveric scaphoids were randomized to have one side fixed with a long and one with a shorter screw (longest screw possible and longest length minus 4 mm). Under fluoroscopic control a central guidewire was inserted and a cannulated screw placed. A wedge osteotomy was made to simulate a horizontal oblique fracture plane. The proximal pole of the scaphoid was placed into a fixture. Load was applied by using a load-controlled test protocol in a hydraulic testing machine and displacement was measured.

Results: There was no significant difference between the load at 1 and 2mm displacement for long and short screws. The load at 1 and 2 mm displacement was 40.9 N (SEM 7.0 N; 90\% CI 28.4-53.5 N) and 80.9 N (SEM 11.0 N; 90\% CI 61.1-100.7 N) for the short screws compared with 50.4 N (SEM 10.2 N; 32.0-68.8 N) and 92.6 N (SEM 15.6 N; 64.5-120.7 N) for the long screws. An equivalence test based on the mean and 90\% CI showed that these values are equivalent.

Conclusions: These data suggest that in oblique waist fracture, fixation with a long or a short screw are equivalent in strength. Given the higher risk of complications with longer screws, a shorter screw is advisable and has no negative impact on the stability of the construct.

This allowed us to include surface information on the incudomallear (IM) complex (joint, ligaments and tendon not included) of 123 healthy ears with a scanning resolution of 150~μm and without a priori assumptions. Statistical shape modeling yields an average geometry for the IM complex and the variations present in the population with a high precision. Mean values, variation and correlations among anatomical features (length of manubrium, combined length of malleus head and neck, lengths of incus long and short process, enclosing angles, ossicular lever ratio, incudomallear angle, and principal moments of inertia) are reported and compared to results from the literature. Most variation is found in overall size and the angle between incus and malleus. The compact representation provided by statistical shape modeling is demonstrated and its benefits for surface modeling are discussed.},

	abstract = {Introduction
Statistical shape modeling is a promising approach to map out the variability of a population. By adapting the parameters of the shape model, a new, realistic surface can be obtained. In this work, the framework for surface registration and building a statistical shape model of fruit is described.

Method
The framework consists of two parts. First, a reference surface is registered to each fruit. Based on the correspondences that resulted from this surface registration, a statistical shape model is built. In the surface registration part, a reference surface is registered to a target surface, such that the geometric distance between those surfaces becomes minimal while maintaining correspondences. The second part of our framework consists of building a statistical shape model based on the correspondences that resulted from the surface registration (Fig. 1). The model is built by performing principal
components analysis on the corresponding points matrix of the population. In this model, the mean surface and the main shape modes are captured.
Parametrization of a surface is the task of defining a map between the surface and a simple parameter domain, such as a cylinder or sphere, so each fruit in the model can be described using basis functions, such as B-splines. This is a very compact representation and is useful in CAD and finite-element environments, so the models can be used for simulations.

Results
Experiments resulted in better correspondences than the current state-of-the-art. This means that our shape model is a good representation of the population and adapting the shape model parameters will lead to a realistic surface.

Applications
Possible applications of a statistical shape model of fruit are predicting the final size of the fruit, search for correlations between stages of growth, estimate the volume from a single view and evaluation of the effect of the fruit shape on airflow characteristics to obtain cooling uniformity.},

SSM can later be used in FE models to study the effect of geometry on sound transmission, or parameters can be fitted to clinical CT data to obtain a patient-specific computer model.

Methods and Materials: In this study we combine data of high resolution micro-CT scans (uCT, 20 um resolution) of 6 human cadaveric temporal bones and clinical cone-beam CT scans (CBCT, 150 um resolution) of 100 patients. First, a dense correspondence between the uCT samples is obtained by pair-wise elasticity modulated registration of a reference sample to each of the remaining samples. A SSM is built from these corresponded scans using principal component analysis (PCA), describing the average shape and the main variations of the middle ear within the uCT population. Next this SSM is fitted to clinical CBCT data by elastic registration with the SSM as shape prior.

Results and conclusions: We will obtain an average geometrical model for malleus, incus and IM complex and characterize the deviations present in the patient population. We will do this by reporting natural variation of size and thickness of malleus head, neck and manubrium, the long and short process of the incus and relative angles in the IM complex.},

	abstract = {The clavicle has a complex osteologic structure that makes morphological analysis extremely difficult. A three-dimensional study was conducted to examine the anatomical variations and characteristics of the bone. Sixty-eight human cadaver clavicles were dissected, CAT-scanned, and reconstructed. An automated parameterization and correspondence shape analysis system was developed. A new length, designated as centerline (CL) length, was defined and measured. This length represents the true length of the clavicle. The endpoint length was measured as the distance between two endpoints. The width and curvature were measured in the axial (AX) and frontal (FR) plane and defined along the CL. Next gender and side characteristics and variations were examined. The mean CL length was 159.0 {\textpm} 11.0 mm. The mean endpoint length was 149.4 {\textpm} 10.3 mm, which was statistically significantly shorter than the CL. The male clavicle was significantly longer (166.8 {\textpm} 7.3 mm vs. 151.0 {\textpm} 8.2 mm), wider (14.6 {\textpm} 1.5 mm vs. 12.7 {\textpm} 1.3 mm lateral FR plane, 25.9 {\textpm} 4.1 mm vs. 23.5 {\textpm} 3.0 mm lateral AX plane and 24.7 {\textpm} 2.8 mm vs. 22.8 {\textpm} 2.8 mm medial AX plane), and more curved (10.8 {\textpm} 2.8 mm vs. 8.6 {\textpm} 2.3 mm medial and 10.5 {\textpm} 3.3 mm vs. 9.1 {\textpm} 2.5 mm lateral) than the female one. Left clavicles were significant longer (159.8 {\textpm} 10.9 mm vs. 158.0 {\textpm} 11.2 mm) than right clavicles. A novel three-dimensional system was developed, used and tested in order to explore the anatomical variations and characteristics of the human clavicle. This information, together with the automated system, can be applied to future clavicle populations and to the design of fixation plates for clavicle fractures. Clin.

	abstract = {Introduction Clavicles have a complex osteologic structure which makes a morphometric analysis extremely difficult. Our analysis shows the exact measurements and variations of the clavicle.

Materials and Methods 90 clavicles were dissected, CAT scanned and reconstructed. All measurements were automatically performed. The length and curvatures were calculated around the central line and for each cross-section the average, sagittal and axial diameter was calculated.

Results The average length is 163{\textpm}11 mm. For the length, there is a 9\% difference between the gender and 1.2\% between the left and right clavicle. Between the genders there is a volume difference of 36\%. The extremities show the biggest diameter, this decrease as approaching to the inflexion point, which is the smallest average diameter. In the axial view the acromial curvature is shorter and more curved than the sternal one. In males, the maximum acromial curvature has a difference of 18\% and the maximum sternal curvature a difference of 4\% compared with the females. In the coronal view there is a concave curvature with a maximum of 6 mm. In females the acromial end bends more posteroinferiorly.

Discussion This is the first 3D analysis performed on the clavicle. Females have a smaller clavicle with a shorter and less curved acromial curvature and a posteroinferior bending. The right clavicle is slightly shorter, thicker and more robust.},
