Large vessels as a tree of transmission lines incorporated in the CircAdapt whole-heart model: A computational tool to examine heart-vessel interaction
Fig 2
Overview of the complete arterial model domain.
Geometrical and mechanical properties of modelled arteries are given in Table B in S1 Text. Panels display pressure and flow waveforms for three regions (i.e. central, arm and leg, indicated using symbol and colour coding). Grey curves display left ventricular (LV) pressures and volumes, left atrial (LA) pressures and volumes as well as aortic valve flow. Line type indicates the distance from the heart within a region; proximal: solid line, intermediate: dash-dotted line, distal: dotted line, respectively. Arrows indicate the direction of mean blood flow. Aortic valve closure is indicated by the vertical blue dashed lines.
