Talk abstract:
Introduction to Cardiac Mechanics, II: Cardiac Fluid
and Tissue Mechanics
Charles S. Peskin, Courant Institute, NYU
Equations of motion for the heart will be presented in this lecture.
These equations give a unified description of the muscular heart
walls, the flexible heart valve leaflets, and the blood that flows in
the cardiac chambers. The numerical solution of the equations of
motion will also be briefly introduced, with further details in my
talk on Thursday.
