Resumen
This paper presents a novel computational framework for the numerical simulation of the electromechanical response of the myocardium during the cardiac cycle. The paper presents the following main novelties. (1) Two new mixed formulations, tailormade for active stress and active strain coupling approaches, have been developed and used in conjunction with two different ionic models, namely Bueno-Orovio et al. (2008) and Ten Tusscher et al. (2004). Taking as a reference the mixed formulations introduced by Bonet et al. (2015) in the context of nonlinear elasticity, the proposed formulations include as unknown fields the geometry and the transmembrane potential (and possibly a Lagrange multiplier enforcing weakly the incompressibility constraint) as well as the deformation gradient tensor, its cofactor, its determinant, the gradient of the transmembrane potential and their respective work conjugates. The Finite Element implementation of these formulations is shown in this paper, where a ...
