A convenient scheme for coupling a finite element curvilinear mesh to a finite element voxel mesh: application to the heart

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In some cases, it may be necessary to combine distinct finite element meshes into a single system. The present work describes a scheme for coupling a finite element mesh, which may have curvilinear elements, to a voxel based finite e...
