3d stomach model

Hi guys i am a newbie on matlab, is there a way to model a 2d or 3d stomach model in matlab? I need such a model for my project. Thanks in advance

Sure. Do the biology, chemistry, even physics, writing out the equations of whatever aspects of a stomach you are modeling. Once you have those equations, decide how to formulate them, probably in the form of a ODEs or perhaps PDEs. Again, there are a lot of things that can be encompassed by a COMPLETE model of a system as diverse as a major part of the human body. You may now decide to use tools like Simulink or ODE or PDE solvers to work with that system. Or you might even have a problem simple enough to be dealt with analytically. I could also envision some cases where Monte Carlo might be appropriate.

But once you decide what exactly you are modeling, what are the necessary euations, etc., and HOW you will model it, only then should you even think about how to solve the problem in MATLAB.

As for myself, it is now lunch time, so my own stomach modeling will be done at the table.

Thank you very much for the response.
