We propose a mathematical and numerical model for the simulation of the heart function that
couples cardiac electrophysiology, active and passive mechanics and hemodynamics, and …

Numerical simulations are ubiquitous in mathematics and computational science. Several
industrial and clinical applications entail modeling complex multiphysics systems that evolve …

Patient-specific models of blood flow in the coronary arteries have entered clinical practice
worldwide to aid in the diagnosis and management of heart disease. This technology …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is an important tool for the simulation of the
cardiovascular function and dysfunction. Due to the complexity of the anatomy, the …

We analyse the haemodynamics of the left atrium, highlighting differences between healthy
individuals and patients affected by atrial fibrillation. The computational study is based on …

Modeling the behavior of biological tissues and organs often necessitates the knowledge of
their shape in the absence of external loads. However, when their geometry is acquired in …

We introduce a multiphysics and geometric multiscale computational model, suitable to
describe the hemodynamics of the whole human heart, driven by a four-chamber …

Heart disease is the number one cause of death in the US (Xu et al., 2020). Many efforts
have been devoted to studying its progression, diagnosis, and treatment. During the past …

Background Modeling the whole cardiac function involves the solution of several complex
multi-physics and multi-scale models that are highly computationally demanding, which call …

Background Simulating the cardiac function requires the numerical solution of multi-physics
and multi-scale mathematical models. This underscores the need for streamlined, accurate …
