Real-time computation of bio-heat transfer in the fast explicit dynamics finite element algorithm (FED-FEM) framework (MIT License)

GitHub GitHub top language

This is the source repository for the paper:
Zhang, J., & Chauhan, S. (2019). Real-time computation of bio-heat transfer in the fast explicit dynamics finite element algorithm (FED-FEM) framework. Numerical Heat Transfer, Part B: Fundamentals, 75(4), 217-238. doi:10.1080/10407790.2019.1627812.

which is based on the work of

Zhang, J., & Chauhan, S. (2019). Fast explicit dynamics finite element algorithm for transient heat transfer. International Journal of Thermal Sciences, 139, 160-175. doi:10.1016/j.ijthermalsci.2019.01.030 [Code].

Please cite the above paper if you use this code for your research.

If this code is helpful in your projects, please help to ⭐ this repo or recommend it to your friends. Thanks😊

Environment:

  • Windows 10
  • Visual Studio 2017
  • OpenMP

How to build:

  1. Download the source repository.
  2. Visual Studio 2017->Create New Project (Empty Project)->Project->Add Existing Item->Bioheat.cpp.
  3. Project->Properties->C/C++->Language->OpenMP Support->Yes (/openmp).
  4. Build Solution (Release/x64).

How to use:

  1. (cmd)Command Prompt->build path>project_name.exe input.txt. Example:

  2. Output: T.vtk

How to visualize:

  1. Open T.vtk. (such as using ParaView)

How to make input.txt:

  1. Liver_Iso.inp (Abaqus input) is provided in the “models”, which was used to create Liver_Iso_n1.txt.

Material types:

  1. Isotropic, orthotropic, and anisotropic thermal conductivities.

Boundary conditions (BCs):

  1. Node index: HFlux, FixT.
  2. Element index: Perfu, BodyHFlux.
  3. All Elements: Metabo.

Notes:

  1. Node and Element index can start at 0, 1, or any but must be consistent in a file.
  2. Index starts at 0: *.txt.
  3. Index starts at 1: *_n1.txt.
