Published in 2017 at "Annals of Biomedical Engineering"

DOI: 10.1007/s10439-017-1812-x

Abstract: Healthy hearts have an inherent twisting motion that is caused by large changes in muscle fiber orientation across the myocardial wall and is believed to help lower wall stress and increase cardiac output. It was… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering"

DOI: 10.1109/tbme.2019.2950633

Abstract: Objective: Here we report the results of parametric computational simulations evaluating the biomechanical effects of applied apical torsion (AAT) on a patient-specific bi-ventricular failing heart model. Methods: We examined the resulting effects on cardiac biomechanics… read more here.
