HUGO Human Body Model

The CST STUDIO SUITE™  product family allows to import arbitrary voxel data sets. The most prominent and most often used one is the anatomical data set of the Visible Human Project® . The so-called Voxel Man is based on a dissected male corpse sliced into several thousand layers.


Human Body Interface - different tissues and different resolutions.
Figure 1: Human Body Interface - different tissues and different resolutions.

The import is performed via an interface that allows different resolutions (1mm to 8mm) and different material  tissues to be chosen. The area of interest can be selected a priori in a side view and front view. 


Direct access to the material properties via navigation tree in CST STUDIO 2006.

Once the model has been imported into the CST STUDIO SUITE 2006™  the materials are accessible via the navigation tree. Multiple selection of materials and re-assigning e.g. parameterised frequency dependant properties can be done.

Cadence® Allegro® Import in CST STUDIO SUITE™

Cadence® Allegro® Import in CST STUDIO SUITE™
An overview is given of the capabilities of the Cadence Allegro import feature in the CST STUDIO SUITE™. The user has full control over the layout export in Cadence itself and during the import process in CST STUDIO SUITE™. Cross-section and packaging export facilitites mean that layers, dies, and bond wires can be specified in the process. The imported structure is also subjected to an automatic cleaning and healing process to ensure an efficient simulation process. Depending on the size, complexity and required results, either the CST Time-Domain Solver or the Frequency Domain Solver may be used to establish the signal integrity of such layouts.
