In particular hip implants have a lifetime of at most 15 years. This derives primarily from pain due to implant migration, wear, inflammation, and dislocation, which is affected by the positioning of the implant during the surgery. Current joint replacement practice uses 2D software tools and relies on the experience of surgeons. Especially the 2D tools fail to take the patients' natural range of motion as well as stress distribution in the 3D joint induced by different daily motions into account. Optimizing the hip joint implant position for all possible parametrized motions under the constraint of a contact problem is prohibitively expensive as there are too many motions and every position change demands a recalculation of the contact problem. For the reduction of the computational effort, we use adaptive refinement on the parameter domain coupled with the interpolation method of Kriging. A coarse initial grid is to be locally refined using goal-oriented error estimation, reducing locally high variances. This approach will be combined with multi-grid optimization such that numerical errors are reduced.}, language = {en} } @misc{WeiserErdmannSchenkletal.2017, author = {Weiser, Martin and Erdmann, Bodo and Schenkl, Sebastian and Muggenthaler, Holger and Hubig, Michael and Mall, Gita and Zachow, Stefan}, title = {Uncertainty in Temperature-Based Determination of Time of Death}, issn = {1438-0064}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-63818}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Temperature-based estimation of time of death (ToD) can be per- formed either with the help of simple phenomenological models of corpse cooling or with detailed mechanistic (thermodynamic) heat transfer mod- els.

The latter are much more complex, but allow a higher accuracy of death time estimation as in principle all relevant cooling mechanisms can be taken into account. Here, a complete work flow for finite element based cooling simulation models is presented. The following steps are demonstrated on CT-phantoms: • CT-scan • Segmentation of the CT images for thermodynamically relevant features of individual geometries • Conversion of the segmentation result into a Finite Element (FE) simulation model • Computation of the model cooling curve • Calculation of the cooling time For the first time in FE-based cooling time estimation the steps from the CT image over segmentation to FE model generation are semi-automatically performed. The cooling time calculation results are compared to cooling measurements performed on the phantoms under controlled conditions. In this context, the method is validated using different CTphantoms. Some of the CT phantoms thermodynamic material parameters had to be experimentally determined via independent experiments. Moreover the impact of geometry and material parameter uncertainties on the estimated cooling time is investigated by a sensitivity analysis.}, language = {en} } @article{WeiserZachowDeuflhard2010, author = {Weiser, Martin and Zachow, Stefan and Deuflhard, Peter}, title = {Craniofacial Surgery Planning Based on Virtual Patient Models}, series = {it - Information Technology}, volume = {52}, journal = {it - Information Technology}, number = {5}, publisher = {Oldenbourg Verlagsgruppe}, doi = {10.1524/itit.2010.0600}, pages = {258 -- 263}, year = {2010}, language = {en} }
