Surgical simulators present a safe and potentially effective method for surgical training, and can also be used in robot-assisted surgery for pre- and intra-operative planning. Ac...
An analytical model for cutting of a plate of material with a pair of scissors is presented in terms of concepts of contact and fracture mechanics. The forces of contact between t...
