Abstract

We review two models describing the material properties of heart muscle: the fluid-fiber model and the fluid-fiber-collagen model. We show that the fluid-fiber description gives rise to non-uniqueness when used in ventricular modeling while the fluid-fiber-collagen description does not. We derive a general cavity pressure-volume relation for an extended class family of linear models of the heart's left ventricle.
