FEA is a non-invasive modelling technique, based on the principle of
dividing a system into a finite number of discrete ele ments where
the equations are applied. Although static and dynamic analysis can
be solved using FEA, in this course only static analysis will be
cover ed. In this course, there will be an introduction to the Finite
Element in order to model biological structures and understand how
they worked. It wil l cover all the steps involved in FEA (for static
analysis) except the crea tion or reconstruction of the model, which
will be covered in the previous course "3D Model Generation in
Biosciences". That is how to define the material properties of
biological structures, the use of a consistent M esh Generation
Methods, the proper definition of biomechanical boundary con ditions
and finally, how understand and analyse the results obtained in a c omputational simulation.

This course is co-organized by Transmit ting Science and the Institut
Catalá de Paleontologia M. Crusafont. Pl aces are limited and will be
covered by strict registration order.

Please feel free to distribute this information between your
colleagues if you consider it appropriate.
