Journal ArticleDOI
Dependence of local left ventricular wall mechanics on myocardial fiber orientation: A model study
TL;DR: It is concluded that the distribution of active muscle fiber stress and muscle fiber strain across the LV wall is very sensitive to the transmural distribution of the helix fiber angle and a physiological transmuralDistribution can be found, at which active muscle Fiber Stress and muscle Fiber strain are distributed approximately homogeneously across theLV wall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the normal cardiac myofiber field in goat measured with MR-diffusion tensor imaging
TL;DR: The transmural course of the helix angle corresponded to data reported in literature and appeared to be <0.07 mm(-1) throughout the myocardial walls except for the fusion sites between the left and right ventricles and the insertion sites of the papillary muscles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation between left ventricular cavity pressure and volume and systolic fiber stress and strain in the wall
TL;DR: In the present model study global left-ventricular pump function as expressed in terms of cavity pressure and volume is related to local wall tissue function as related to myocardial fiber stress and strain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptation to mechanical load determines shape and properties of heart and circulation: the CircAdapt model
TL;DR: It was concluded that a few adaptation rules, directed to normalize mechanical load of the tissue, were sufficient to develop and maintain a realistic circulation automatically and appear to be the key to reduce dramatically the number of input parameters for simulating circulation dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Homogeneity of cardiac contraction despite physiological asynchrony of depolarization: a model study.

TL;DR: The present finding may indicate that electromechanical delay times are heterogeneously distributed, such that a contraction in a normal heart is more synchronous than depolarization.
