A High-Fidelity 3D Micromechanical Model of Ventricular Myocardium
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) imposes a pressure overload on the right ventricle (RV), leading to myofiber hypertrophy and remodeling of the extracellular collagen fiber network. While the macroscopic ...

A Micro-anatomical Model of the Infarcted Left Ventricle Border Zone to Study the Influence of Collagen Undulation
Myocardial infarction (MI) results in cardiac myocyte death and often initiates the formation of a fibrotic scar in the myocardium surrounded by a border zone. Myocyte loss and collagen-rich scar tissue heavil...

On the Possibility of Estimating Myocardial Fiber Architecture from Cardiac Strains
The myocardium is composed of a complex network of contractile myofibers that are organized in such a way as to produce efficient contraction and relaxation of the heart. The myofiber architecture in the myoca...
