Passive mechanical stresses are calculated using an orthotropic material model based on the experimental investigation of passive material properties of the myocardium, while active stresses are calculated using the Hunter material model. The basic equations for solid mechanics, fluid dynamics, and muscle activation are summarized and model applicability is illustrated on a complex realistic model which includes a left atrium, ventricle, mitral and aortic valves (which serve as fluid domain) coupled with solid wall with realistic fiber directions.conferenceObject10.1109/BIBE52308.2021.96352842-s2.0-85123717527
