Computational modeling of the electromechanical response of a ventricular fiber affected by eccentric hypertrophy

The aim of this work is to study the effects of eccentric hypertrophy on the electromechanics of a single myocardial ventricular fiber by means of a one-dimensional finite-element strongly-coupled model. The electrical current ow model is written in the reference configuration and it is characterize...
