This repository contains three source files:

• Bioheat.cpp
• BioheatDeform.cpp
• BioheatExpan.cpp

which can be built by following the instructions in their respective repositories:

• https://github.com/jinaojakezhang/FEDFEMBioheat
• https://github.com/jinaojakezhang/FEDFEMBioheatDeform
• https://github.com/jinaojakezhang/FEDFEMBioheatExpan

The only difference is that the source code files in this repository compute the thermal damage CEM43 and write it to a CEM43.vtk.

How to visualize:

1. Open CEM43.vtk. (such as using ParaView)
2. Apply “Contour” for isosurfaces, value = 240 for 240 CEM43.
