受损心脏电力耦合问题高效数值模拟方法及其应用研究

Injury of the heart can lead to dysfunction, decline and even loss of pump blood function of the heart. It is urgent to study how to construct computable models and numerical methods for the accurate medical treatment of the injured heart. In this project, some researches on modeling, computation and application of the human atriums, ventricles, vessels, valves and stents of the injured heart are investigated. Based on the large deformation diffeomorphic metric mapping, the new image mapping method is proposed to obtain the high accuracy strain. Combining the action potential model of the cardiac myocytes with the monodomain electrical potential model of atriums and ventricles, the electro-mechanical coupling model of the injured heart is presented. The model is more consistent with electrophysiological characteristics. By using the stable schemes and the immersed boundary method without generating complex body fitted grids, the hybrid immersed boundary method is established to solve the FSI problems of the injured heart. On the basis of local grid generation method and the task equilibrium principle, the high efficient node-based finite method is proposed to solve the obtained electrophysiological model. Finally, a platform for the computation and application of electro-mechanical coupling problems of the injured heart is founded. In the platform, the key scientific problems in the numerical methods for the corresponding FSI and electro-mechanical coupling problems of the injured heart can be solved successfully. Based on the obtained results, an efficient, reliable and complete research framework for the modeling, computation, analysis and its application of the injured heart can be provided. The obtained achievements will promote the interdisciplinary researches between different fields, such as computational mathematics, image processing, computational cardiology and clinical medicine on some relevant issues.
