Multiphysics Computational Modelling of the Cardiac Ventricles

Development of cardiac multiphysics models has progressed significantly over the decades and simulations combining multiple physics interactions have become increasingly common. In this review, we summarise the progress in this field focusing on various approaches of integrating ventricular structures. electrophysiological properties, myocardial mechanics, as well as incorporating blood hemodynamics and the circulatory system. Common coupling approaches are discussed and compared, including the advantages and shortcomings of each. Currently used strategies for patient-specific implementations are highlighted and potential future improvements considered.
