The Costa-Law, an orthotropic Fung-type model, best fits myocardial shear behavior for inverse material parameter estimation. This finite element analysis confirms its suitability for understanding heart mechanics.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Cardiovascular Mechanics
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Passive material properties of the myocardium are crucial for diastolic heart function.
  • Myocardial shear behavior is significant due to the heart muscle's layered structure.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the suitability of different myocardial constitutive laws for inverse material parameter estimation using finite element analysis.
  • To compare the performance of these laws under non-homogeneous deformation conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Implemented five constitutive laws within a finite element framework to model myocardial shear deformation.
  • Assessed laws based on goodness of fit to experimental data, objective function determinability, and parameter variability.
  • Compared finite element results with previous homogeneous deformation study findings.

Main Results:

  • The orthotropic Fung-type "Costa-Law" demonstrated the highest suitability for inverse material parameter estimation.
  • This law showed robust performance in fitting experimental shear deformation data and parameter stability.
  • Finite element analysis provided more realistic suitability measures compared to homogeneous assumptions.

Conclusions:

  • The Costa-Law is the most appropriate constitutive model for estimating myocardial material parameters from shear deformation data.
  • Finite element analysis is essential for accurately assessing the suitability and stability of constitutive models in biomechanics.
  • Understanding myocardial mechanics through accurate constitutive modeling is vital for diagnosing and treating diastolic dysfunction.
