Heterogeneity may modulate myocardial tension and creep; leaves open relevance to human cardiac function pending in vivo validation.
Numerical experiments using a 3D block model of heterogeneous myocardial tissue reveal that structural heterogeneity contributes to both stress relaxation and creep.
Smoluk et al. (2012) studied this question.
