- Abstract
- We present a simulation method that can create accurate virtual models of hand with arbitrarily curved surfaces and perform distortion-free MCNPX simulations. Generally, MCNPX simulations of objects with arbitrarily curved surfaces are performed through voxelization. In this study, a polygon model is tetrahedralized by TetGen for the construction of the MCNPX geometry to be distortion-free. Then, dose estimation was successfully performed after converting the virtual model into an MCNPX input. A voxelized model was constructed for comparison purposes. The dose estimation functions of the two models were found to be similar, showing a similar amount of computing time by using the mesh tally option with 2e7 histories.
