Evidence-based guidelines on the therapeutic use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS): An update (2014-2018)

Simone Rossi, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

A group of European experts reappraised the guidelines on the therapeutic efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) previously published in 2014 [Lefaucheur et al., Clin Neurophysiol 2014;125:2150-206]. These updated recommendations t ...

A transmurally heterogeneous orthotropic activation model for ventricular contraction and its numerical validation

Alfio Quarteroni, Luca Dede', Simone Rossi, Luca Barbarotta

Models for cardiac mechanics require an activation mechanism properly representing the stress-strain relations in the contracting myocardium. In this paper, we propose a new activation model that accounts for the transmural heterogeneities observed in myoc ...

Integrated Heart-Coupling multiscale and multiphysics models for the simulation of the cardiac function

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Toni Mikael Lassila, Simone Rossi

Mathematical modeling of the human heart and its function can expand our understanding of various cardiac diseases, which remain the most common cause of death in the developed world. Like other physiological systems, the heart can be understood as a compl ...

Mathematical modelling of active contraction in isolated cardiomyocytes

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Simone Rossi, Aymen Laadhari

We investigate the interaction of intracellular calcium spatio-temporal variations with the self-sustained contractions in cardiac myocytes. A consistent mathematical model is presented considering a hyperelastic description of the passive mechanical prope ...

Thermodynamically consistent orthotropic activation model capturing ventricular systolic wall thickening in cardiac electromechanics

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Toni Mikael Lassila, Simone Rossi, Adélia Sequeira

The complex phenomena underlying mechanical contraction of cardiac cells and their influence in the dynamics of ventricular contraction are extremely important in understanding the overall function of the heart. In this paper we generalize previous contrib ...

Orthotropic active strain models for the numerical simulation of cardiac biomechanics

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Simone Rossi

An active strain formulation for orthotropic constitutive laws arising in cardiac mechanics modeling is introduced and studied. The passive mechanical properties of the tissue are described by the Holzapfel-Ogden relation. In the active strain formulation, ...

On some numerical aspects of an active strain model in cardiac mechanics

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Simone Rossi

We are interested in the development, implementation and testing of an orthotropic model for cardiac contraction based on an active strain decomposition. Our model addresses the coupling of a transversely isotropic mechanical description at the cell level, ...

Active strain and activation models in cardiac electromechanics

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Simone Rossi

We present a model for mechanical activation of the cardiac tissue depending on the evolution of the transmembrane electrical potential and certain gating/ionic variables that are available in most of electrophysiological descriptions of the cardiac membra ...
