Abstract
A finite element model of the human brain is developed which provides badly needed new information and insight in brain dynamics. The model is based on fewer assumptions and has sufficient detail to permit correlation with experiments. It demonstrates a new approach to brain modeling and hopefully it will become a useful tool in future research.
