CARDIAC ELECTROMECHANICS: THE EFFECT OF CONTRACTION MODEL ON THE MATHEMATICAL PROBLEM AND ACCURACY OF THE NUMERICAL SCHEME

Models of cardiac electromechanics usually contain a contraction model determining the active tension induced at the cellular level and the equations of nonlinear elasticity to determine tissue deformation in response to this active tension. All contraction models are dependent on cardiac electrophy...
