The provided material represent the data used to identify the parameters of an orthotropic constitutive model for rat myocardial infarcts in the acute (0 day), necrotic (7 day), fibrotic (14 day) and remodelling phases (28 day). The study employed inverse methods top optimise the material parameters for Fung orthotropic material (ABAQUS CAE 6.12-2, Dassault Systèmes, Providence, RI, USA) utilizing experimental biaxial stress-strain data [1] and genetic algorithms toolbox in SCILAB 5.4 (Scilab Enterprises S.A.S, Versailles, France). The complete description of the methods can be found in the main article Sirry, MS, Dubuis L, Davies NH, Liao J, Franz T. Identification of orthotropic material parameters for acute, necrotic, fibrotic and remodelling myocardial infarcts in the rat. 2019, BIORXIV/2019/754754
