Single-beat imaging of myocardial activation promises to aid in both cardiovascular
research and clinical medicine. In the present study we validate a three-dimensional (3D) …

In many practically important cases, wave propagation described by the reaction-diffusion
equation initiates deformation of the medium. Mathematically, such processes are described …

This paper deals with the modeling of a wound healing disease, the keloid, which may
provoke onset of malignant cells with higher progression feature, thus generating cells with …

The heart has the ability to respond to long-term changes in its environment through
changes in mass (growth), shape (morphogenesis) and tissue properties (remodeling). For …

We propose a finite element formulation for a coupled elasticity–reaction–diffusion system
written in a fully Lagrangian form and governing the spatio-temporal interaction of species …

We propose in this paper an Eulerian finite element approximation of a coupled chemical
fluid‐structure interaction problem arising in the study of mesoscopic cardiac biomechanics …

Computational cardiac models have been extensively used to study different cardiac
biomechanics; specifically, finite-element analysis has been one of the tools used to study …

Congestive heart failure is characterized by suppressed cardiac output and arterial filling
pressure, leading to renal retention of salt and water, contributing to further volume overload …

Organ-on-chip or micro-engineered three-dimensional cellular or tissue models are
increasingly implemented in the study of cardiovascular pathophysiology as alternatives to …

BACKGROUND: After coronary occlusion, the infarct region loses contractile function
immediately and then undergoes a progressive healing process. This causes complex and …
