Data for publication by Motchon et al "Effect of biomaterial stiffness on cardiac mechanics in a biventricular infarcted rat heart model with microstructural representation of in situ intramyocardial injectate"
ED_ES_Strain_injectate.xlsx: End systolic/diastolic maximum and minimum principal strain for injectate
ED_ES_Strain_myocardium.xlsx: End systolic/diastolic myofibre and cross-fibre strain in the myocardium
2. Word document: ED_ES_Strain_statistical data.docx
End systolic and end diastolic descriptive statistics values in the myocarduim and the injectate region for Einj = 4.1 to 405900 kPa
Each table contains the mean, median, first and third quartile values from strain distribution
The data were obtained for (i) myofibre and cross-fibre strain (in myocardium) and (ii) maximum and minimum principal strain (in the injectate region)
3. Abaqus CAE file: BV_Model.cae
Abaqus file with the model details
Material parameters for the injectate and the myocarduim are implemented
