Analyzing the microscopic energy balance of cardiac tissue is very important for understanding heart diseases. However, such analysis is difficult with animal experiments. Therefore, the accurate simulation model is expected to be an important tool for such research. We propose a cardiac tissue model which can reproduce accurate distribution of oxygen consumption under hypoxia. The model includes...
Some models of cellular physiological functions are formulated as ordinary differential equations that contain multiple systems of simultaneous nonlinear equations. Simulation of such a model described in a declarative representation format requires determination of equations to be simultaneously solved with specification of independent and parameter variables in the model. In this report, a method...
For computer simulations of physiological experiments using physiological models, a machine-readable format of experimental protocols is effective. Here, we propose an XML-based language, PEPML (Physiological Experimental Protocol Markup Language). In the PEPML, conditions and procedures of an experimental protocol are procedurally described as a list of events, each of which consists of a condition...
It is important to use a myocardial cell model to evaluate the effects of the drugs to the hemodynamic parameters. We developed an infant circulation model which incorporates an accurate myocardial cell model including a beta adrenergic system. The beta adrenergic system is essential mechanism for reproducing the response of baroreflex control system. The parameters of the published adult human circulation...
We evaluated the stress distribution in a geometrical shape model and a shape model obtained from human heart using two different fiber orientations. For both orientation models, the results showed large differences of the stress distributions between the mathematical shape model and the measurement based shape model. These results suggest that stress distribution is highly dependent on the model...
To realize precise simulation of the left ventricular motion, it is important to utilize an accurate myocardial tissue model which can reproduce various characteristics of myocardial tissue contraction. In this study, we show that the nonlinear characteristics of the passive myocardial tissue property is the essential nature of the nonlinear force-velocity relation and present a formulation for hyperelastic...
In order to understand the function of biological elements and their interactions, computer analysis and simulation is an essential technique. For higher research efficiency, it is important to provide a system framework for constructing biological simulation systems that handle multiple phenomena. This paper proposes "DynaBioS", a comprehensive system framework for complex biological simulations...
