Modeling Cardiac Mechanics on a Sub-Cellular Scale
2021
We aim to extend existing models of single-cell mechanics to the EMI framework, to define spatially resolved mechanical models of cardiac myocytes embedded in a passive extracellular space. The models introduced here will be pure mechanics models employing fairly simple constitutive laws for active and passive mechanics. Future extensions of the models may include a coupling to the electrophysiology and electro-diffusion models described in the other chapters, to study the impact of spatially heterogeneous ion concentrations on the cell and tissue mechanics.
