Hypothesis-generating for passive LV mechanics; requires experimental validation before research or clinical adoption.
This computational analysis provides a new method to estimate transmural stress and strain in the left ventricle, which can guide future predictions of cardiac stresses and experimental measurements.
Humphrey et al. (1989) studied Passive left ventricle stress and strain. Mathematical modeling of transmural stress and strain was evaluated on Transmural distributions of stress and strain. A new mathematical approach using a thick-walled cylindrical geometry and three-dimensional constitutive relations was developed to estimate transmural stress and strain in the passive left ventricle.
