Structure-based finite strain modelling of the human left ventricle in diastole [PDF]

, 2013
Finite strain analyses of the left ventricle provide important information on heart function and have the potential to provide insights into the biomechanics of myocardial contractility in health and disease. Systolic dysfunction is the most common cause
