Ben Helgason from LOT returning to Switzerland tonight after spending 2 months in Singapore working on the Future Health Technologies program (sec.ethz.ch/research/fht.h…). Thanks everyone at the Singapore-ETH Centre that helped organize the residency under challenging circumstances.

Using large-scale topology optimization in our NU-SPINE European project we realized that more people could benefit from using high-res TO if it would be made accessible in Python. The open-access paper on this topic is available at: rdcu.be/cxMRn #Python

Interested in hip fracture prevention? Computational models based on CT are a powerful tool for risk assessment but are affected by loading alignment and the choice of material model. 👉sciencedirect.com/science/articl… ETH Zurich University of Iceland Laboratory for Orthopaedic Technology - ETH Zurich Laboratory for Movement Biomechanics, ETH Zürich #openaccess

Impact simulations of falls from standing height investigated impact dynamics and fx risk. Lateral and posterior-lateral impacts were most dangerous, and hip protectors most effective for lateral and oblique impacts.
