  2. Skeletal animation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeletal_animation

    Each bone has a three-dimensional transformation from the default bind pose (which includes its position, scale and orientation), and an optional parent bone. The bones therefore form a hierarchy. The full transform of a child node is the product of its parent transform and its own transform. So moving a thigh-bone will move the lower leg too.

  3. Human blood in veins is not actually blue. Blood is red due to the presence of hemoglobin; deoxygenated blood (in veins) has a deep red color, and oxygenated blood (in arteries) has a light cherry-red color. Veins below the skin can appear blue or green due to subsurface scattering of light through the skin, and aspects of human color ...

  4. Soft-body dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft-body_dynamics

    Soft-body dynamics is a field of computer graphics that focuses on visually realistic physical simulations of the motion and properties of deformable objects (or soft bodies). [1]

  5. Bone remodeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_remodeling

    Bone tissue is removed by osteoclasts, and then new bone tissue is formed by osteoblasts. Both processes utilize cytokine (TGF-β, IGF) signalling.In osteology, bone remodeling or bone metabolism is a lifelong process where mature bone tissue is removed from the skeleton (a process called bone resorption) and new bone tissue is formed (a process called ossification or new bone formation).

  6. Skull fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skull_fracture

    A skull fracture is a break in one or more of the eight bones that form the cranial portion of the skull, usually occurring as a result of blunt force trauma.If the force of the impact is excessive, the bone may fracture at or near the site of the impact and cause damage to the underlying structures within the skull such as the membranes, blood vessels, and brain.

  8. Avascular necrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avascular_necrosis

    Avascular necrosis (AVN), also called osteonecrosis or bone infarction, is death of bone tissue due to interruption of the blood supply. [1] Early on, there may be no symptoms. [ 1 ] Gradually joint pain may develop, which may limit the person's ability to move. [ 1 ]

  9. Microdamage in bone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microdamage_in_bone

    Microdamage in bone can be caused by the various loads to which bones are subjected during normal daily activity. It occurs in two different types mainly depending on the load: diffuse damage and microcracks.
