Computational modeling of passive myocardium
This work deals with the computational modeling of passive myocardial tissue within the framework of mixed, non-linear finite element methods. We consider a recently proposed, convex, anisotropic hyperelastic model that accounts for the locally orthotropic micro-structure of cardiac muscle. A coordinate-free representation of anisotropy is incorporated through physically relevant invariants of ...
متن کاملConstitutive modelling of passive myocardium
The objective of this final project is to demonstrate that during the past ten weeks, you have learned to read state of the art continuum mechanics literature. Gerhard Holzapfel and Ray Ogden, two leading scientists in continuum biomechanics, have recently published a manuscript that introduces a new continuum mechanics model for passive cardiac muscle tissue. 1 Read the publication and try to ...
متن کاملShear properties of passive ventricular myocardium.
We examined the shear properties of passive ventricular myocardium in six pig hearts. Samples (3 x 3 x 3 mm) were cut from adjacent regions of the lateral left ventricular midwall, with sides aligned with the principal material axes. Four cycles of sinusoidal simple shear (maximum shear displacements of 0.1-0.5) were applied separately to each specimen in two orthogonal directions. Resulting fo...
متن کاملActive and passive stresses in the myocardium.
A mathematical approach that can be used to calculate the passive stress in the ventricular wall is presented. The active fiber stress (force/unit area) generated by the muscular fibers in the ventricular wall is expressed by means of body force (force/unit volume of the myocardium). It is shown that the total intramyocardial passive stress induced in the passive medium of the myocardium can be...
متن کاملHydroxyproline and passive stiffness of pressure-induced hypertrophied kitten myocardium.
Passive stiffness and hydroxyproline content of myocardium hypertrophied by pressure-loading were determined in kittens 2, 8-16, and 24-52 wk after pulmonary artery banding, which initially elevated right ventricular systolic pressure by 10-15 mm Hg. Right ventricular mass increased by approximately 75%, three-quarters of which occurred during the first 2 wk after banding. Passive stiffness was...
