RESUMO
In this work, we present a fully coupled fluid-electro-mechanical model of a 50th percentile human heart. The model is implemented on Alya, the BSC multi-physics parallel code, capable of running efficiently in supercomputers. Blood in the cardiac cavities is modeled by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) scheme. Electrophysiology is modeled with a monodomain scheme and the O'Hara-Rudy cell model. Solid mechanics is modeled with a total Lagrangian formulation for discrete strains using the Holzapfel-Ogden cardiac tissue material model. The three problems are simultaneously and bidirectionally coupled through an electromechanical feedback and a fluid-structure interaction scheme. In this paper, we present the scheme in detail and propose it as a computational cardiac workbench.
