| Abstract | A model of left ventricular function is developed based on morphological characteristics of the myocardial tissue. The passive response of the three-dimensional collagen network and the active contribution of the muscle fibers are integrated to yield the overall response of the left ventricle which is considered to be a thick wall cylinder. The deformation field and the distributions of stress and pressure are determined at each point in the cardiac cycle by numerically solving three equations of equilibrium. Simulated results in terms of the ventricular deformation during ejection and isovolumic cycles are shown to be in good qualitative agreement with experimental data. It is shown that the collagen network in the heart has considerable effect on the pressure-volume loops. The particular pattern of spatial orientation of the collagen determines the ventricular recoil properties in early diastole. The material properties (myocardial stiffness and contractility) are shown to affect both the pressure-volume loop and the deformation pattern of the ventricle. The results indicate that microstructural consideration offer a realistic representation of the left ventricle mechanics. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
