Quantitative study of the effect of tissue microstructure on contraction in a computational model of rat left ventricle.

Tissue microstructure, in particular the alignment of myocytes (fibre direction) and their lateral organisation into sheets, is fundamental to cardiac function. We studied the effect of microstructure on contraction in a computational model of rat left ventricular electromechanics. Different fibre m...
