In the wide literature devoted to the cardiac structural mechanics, the strain energy proposed by Holzapfel and Ogden exhibits a number of interesting features: it has suitable mathematical properties and it is based on few material parameters that can, in ...
Isogeometric analysis (IGA) is a computational methodology recently developed to numerically approximate Partial Differential Equation (PDEs). It is based on the isogeometric paradigm, for which the same basis functions used to represent the geometry are t ...
Compression wood conifer tracheids show different swelling and stiffness properties than those of usual normal wood, which has a practical function in the living plant: when a conifer shoot is moved from its vertical position, compression wood is formed in ...
In this work we compare numerically different families of nested quadrature points, i.e. the classic Clenshaw{Curtis and various kinds of Leja points, in the context of the quasi-optimal sparse grid approximation of random elliptic PDEs. Numerical evidence ...
In this paper we present the continuous and discontinuous Galerkin methods in a unified setting for the numerical approximation of the transport dominated advection-reaction equation. Both methods are stabilized by the interior penalty method, more precise ...
We continue the development of high-order accurate thin layer approximations for time-domain electromagnetics and focus in this paper on a new family of models for thin transmission layers. The thin transmission layer approximations are valid for general i ...
A finite element heterogeneous multiscale method is proposed for the wave equation with highly oscillatory coefficients. It is based on a finite element discretization of an effective wave equation at the macro scale, whose a priori unknown effective coeff ...
This project deals with the finite element approximation of an inverse problem for the monodomain equation, which models the propagation of the electrical potential in the cardiac muscle. The goal consists in recovering the shape of an infarcted area inside ...
The coupling between cardiac mechanics and electric signaling is addressed in a nonstandard framework in which the electrical potential dictates the active strain (not stress) of the muscle. The physiological and mathematical motivations leading us to this ...

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, ...
