A monolithic algorithm for the simulation of cardiac electromechanics in the human left ventricle

In this paper, we propose a monolithic algorithm for the numerical solution of the electromechanics model of the left ventricle in the human heart. Our coupled model integrates the monodomain equation with the Bueno-Orovio minimal model for electrophysiology and the Holzapfel-Ogden constitutive law...
