Right ventricular myocardial mechanics: Multi-modal deformation, microstructure, modeling, and comparison to the left ventricle

Sotirios Kakaletsis et al.

Summary: This study aims to fill the research gap on the right ventricular myocardium and reveals that it is less stiff in the fiber direction compared to the left ventricular myocardium, displaying non-linear, anisotropic, and tension/compression asymmetric behavior with a direction-dependent Poynting effect. The Holzapfel model successfully fits the data through inverse finite element analysis, and higher-fidelity microstructural data improves predictive ability.

In Vitro Methods to Model Cardiac Mechanobiology in Health and Disease

Ignasi Jorba et al.

Summary: In vitro cardiac modeling has advanced in studying the impact of mechanobiological cues on cell and tissue function, with a focus on matrix stiffness and organization. The development of 2D and 3D models allows for a comprehensive understanding of the impact on human cardiac physiology and offers insights for tissue regeneration and drug discovery.

Paired Pressure-Volume Loop Analysis and Biaxial Mechanical Testing Characterize Differences in Left Ventricular Tissue Stiffness of Volume Overload and Angiotensin-Induced Pressure Overload Hearts

Rachel C. Childers et al.

Summary: Pressure overload and volume overload result in distinctive changes to heart geometry and tissue mechanical properties. PV loop analysis showed an increase in chamber stiffness in PO and a decrease in VO, while biaxial testing revealed a decreased myocardial modulus in the VO model but no changes in the PO model.

Passive mechanical properties in healthy and infarcted rat left ventricle characterised via a mixture model

Denisa Martonova et al.

Summary: During the study, passive mechanical properties in healthy and infarcted rat myocardium were characterized using mechanical testing and parameter fitting. The infarcted myocardium exhibited significantly stiffer behavior compared to healthy tissue, with stiffness correlating with the amount of fibrosis. The proposed material model successfully captured the behavior of both types of tissues and represented the experimental data well after calibration with fitted parameters.

Mathematical modeling of the cardiac tissue

A. Martynenko et al.

Summary: An improved mathematical model of soft heart tissue is presented, considering both passive and active phases of cardiac tissue deformation. Nonlinear material equations derived from nonequilibrium thermodynamics principles are used, along with coupled equations of mechanochemical kinetics to account for muscle contraction in the active phase. The proposed model is suitable for computer modeling of the heart and circulatory system.

Study of biaxial mechanical properties of the passive pig heart: material characterisation and categorisation of regional differences

Fulufhelo Nemavhola

Summary: Regional mechanics of the heart play a vital role in accurate computational modeling for relevant therapies. The study found that the mechanical properties of the pig heart myocardium exhibit non-linear, heterogeneous, and anisotropic behavior. The material parameters of selected constitutive models may assist in regional tissue mechanics and the development of new therapies for various heart diseases.
