This Research in Undergraduate Instittuions (RUI) award is to continue and complete research on simulation methodologies for real-time surgical training in collaboration with the NSF sponsored Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Interactive Computer Graphics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. The research will address constructing theoretical and experimental models which will focus on the design and validation of a simulation model for the human knee joint with special attention paid to modeling the meniscus. Knee geometry will be reconstructed from NMR scans of an actual human knee. Soft tissues will be modeled using a new particle-based computer- simulation modeling technique that is particularly well suited to real-time modeling of soft biological tissues. These models will be utilized for the teaching of arthoscopic surgical techniques. The Principal Investigator is well qualified to conduct this research. The Program Manager recommends Williams College be awarded $30,000 for one (1) year. The award includes $5,000 to provide support for one undergraduate research assistant from the "Funding for Support of Women, Minority, and Disabled Engineering Research Assistants" program.

本科生研究所(RUI)奖是与NSF赞助的伦斯勒理工学院交互计算机图形学行业/大学合作研究中心合作，继续并完成实时外科培训模拟方法的研究。这项研究将致力于构建理论和实验模型，重点是设计和验证人类膝关节的仿真模型，并特别注意对半月板进行建模。人体膝关节的核磁共振扫描将重建出膝关节的几何形状。软组织将使用一种新的基于粒子的计算机模拟建模技术进行建模，该技术特别适合于软生物组织的实时建模。这些模型将用于关节镜手术技术的教学。首席调查员完全有资格进行这项研究。项目经理建议向威廉姆斯学院奖励3万美元，为期一(1)年。该奖项包括5,000美元，用于资助“支持妇女、少数民族和残疾人工程研究助理”项目中的一名本科生研究助理。
