**Human body finite element (FE) models for Injury Assessments**
[Download the latest model](https://vivaplus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#getting-started)
The stable releases can be dowloaded from [Zenodo](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7789362) and the latest model can be downloaded from main branch in [this repository](https://openvt.eu/fem/viva/vivaplus).
All the models can be found in the `model` folder. See the [documentation](https://vivaplus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/model/) to read more about the model and file structure.
The include files that are common to all the models (material/section/property definitions, contacts, constraints, etc.) are placed in the `common` subfolder. The model-specific files (main files, node coordinates) can be found in the respective sub-directory, e.g., `model/50F-Seated/`.
