Validation of FE Deformation Models using Ultrasonic and MR Images

— This paper describes the measurement of inner deformation of a rheological object using ultrasonic and MR images and comparison the measured and simulated deformations. We apply finite element (FE) model to simulate elastic, viscoplastic, and rheological deformation of soft objects. Ultrasonic and MR images are used to reveal the inner deformation of a soft object. Here we report the measurement and its evaluating by comparing measured and simulated deformations. Keywords—simulation, measurement, FE model, ultrasonic images, MR images
