AnyBody Summit 2026

Date: May 14, 2026

Location: Tokyo, Japan

We are pleased to announce Terrabyte Inc. will be holding an AnyBody Modeling System user meeting in Tokyo, Japan on May 14 2026. This event will feature a keynote speech by Professor John Rasmussen of Aalborg University, a world-renowned authority in the field of musculoskeletal simulation. In addition, there will be several case study presentations by domestic users, introducing the latest knowledge and application examples in musculoskeletal analysis. We hope that this user meeting will provide an opportunity to gain new perspectives and hints for solving problems in your daily research and development. A networking session is also planned at the end of the program. Please take advantage of this opportunity to exchange information and build networks with researchers and engineers active in the field of biomechanics. We look forward to your participation.

PhD Course – Welcome to Musculoskeletal Modeling by Multibody Dynamics

Date: March 16 – 20, 2026

Location: Aalborg, Denmark

This PhD course introduces techniques for modeling of musculoskeletal systems based on multibody dynamics. The course takes a bottom-up approach beginning with kinematics of open and closed chains and ending with analysis of complex and anatomically realistic models.  The course uses the AnyBody Modeling System throughout and contains an introduction to this system.

Webcast: Subscapularis Integrity and Posterosuperior Cuff Tear Severity Affect Scapular Impingement and Joint Stability in Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty: Medialization vs. Lateralization

Date: March 17, 2026 at 9 AM (CET)

This study provides a comprehensive overview of the interaction between reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) designs, subscapularis integrity, and posterosuperior cuff tear severity. Using the AnyBody Modeling System, the study quantified impingement stress and joint translation to determine which RTSA configuration, combined with subscapularis status, more effectively minimizes scapular notching-related impingement stress and improves joint stability. This webcast demonstrates how musculoskeletal model simulations can inform surgical planning. It highlights the potential benefits of lateralized RTSA with subscapularis repair in reducing the risk of scapular notching and improving joint stability.

Webcast: Sphere-on-Sphere model: shoulder model including humeral head translation

Date: January 15, 2026 at 3 PM (CET)

This webinar will present a musculoskeletal shoulder model that uses a sphere-on-sphere representation of the glenohumeral joint together with force-dependent kinematics (FDK) to enable realistic translation of the humeral head, rather than using a ball-and-socket representation of the joint. This results in more physiologically plausible kinematics of the humeral head and more realistic muscle activation patterns, especially for the cuff muscles. The model improves the ability to investigate glenohumeral stability, including the impact of variations in joint congruence or rotator cuff tear configurations on muscle compensation and joint loading.

The full model is available on GitHub (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.17279962).
