A Thoracic Model using Three-dimensional Finite Element Method
3차원 유한 요소법을 이용한 흉부 모델
Abstract
A three-dimensional thoracic model was constructed using 8-node trilinear hexahedron elements. A three-dimensional steady-state finite element code was developed using FORTRAN. Its output consists of potential at each node. current In each element, and total current In each layer in the z-direction. The thoracic model was Implemented to calculate basal impedance(Zo) In Impedance CardiograPhy Generalized Laplace's equation was solved with Dirlchlet(constant potentials) and homogeneous Neumann(no flux) boundary conditions. It was found that the con structed thoracic model was reasonable since the calculated potential differences between the adjacent electrodes and basal impedance were about the same as the measured ones.
