An Electro - Mechanical Model of the Heart forCardiac Image
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple electro-mechanical model of the heart is derived to best t available cardiac images. The model is based on anisotropic linear elasticity and, from the electrical point of view, on the nite-element discretisation of the FitzHugh-Nagumo electric wave-propagation model. Present simulations include static image segmentation. By including biological and physical a priori knowledge, more realistic 4D images seg-mentation of the cardiac motion are expected.

Free vibration of a simply-supported magneto-electro-elastic doubly-curved nano-shell is studied based on the first-order shear deformation theory in the presence of the rotary inertia effect. To model the electric and magnetic behaviors of the nano-shell, Gauss’s laws for electrostatics and magneto statics are used.
