Abstract

This dataset provides simulation results from a high-fidelity human upper-arm finite element model under varying muscle activations and an example script to load the data.The upper arm model consists of the bones of the radius and ulna for the forearm and the humerus for the upper arm. The elbow joint that connects them is modeled as a simple hinge joint. It contains five muscles that operate this joint, two extensors and three flexors: m. triceps brachii, m. anconeus, m. biceps brachii, m. brachialis, m. brachioradialis. The geometry of all these components is modeled after the Visible Human Male dataset. Each of the muscles is associated with a corresponding muscle activation, which represents the percentage of the maximum possible active stress that the muscle is currently exerting. The provided simulation results themselves contain data on element- and node-level including positional data as well as stress data and node-connectivity information. The saved simulation results constitutes equilibrium states for the given activation levels.
