Accurate constitutive laws are vital for understanding ventricular mechanics. This study evaluates five laws based on fit, determinability, and parameter variability to guide selection for cardiac muscle modeling.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Physiology
  • Biomechanical Engineering
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Ventricular mechanics analysis relies on accurate constitutive laws for passive cardiac muscle.
  • Cardiac muscle exhibits complex nonlinear and anisotropic properties.
  • Existing constitutive laws require rigorous evaluation for reliable stress-strain behavior modeling.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare five constitutive laws for passive cardiac muscle.
  • To evaluate laws based on goodness of fit, parameter determinability, and variability.
  • To inform the selection of appropriate constitutive models for ventricular mechanics.

Main Methods:

  • Fitting five proposed constitutive laws to experimental shear deformation data.
  • Assessing the goodness of fit to experimental stress-strain measurements.
