Figure 9. Torsion [rad] during a cardiac cycle.

Figure 9

Results are presented from simulation SS (upper left), an SS subject (upper right), 3 SIT simulations (bottom left), and 3 SIT subjects (bottom right). Model results are shown before and after reorientation. Torsion was determined in four sections between apex and base. Inline graphic = ejection phase; Inline graphic = isovolumic relaxation phase; Inline graphic = filling phase; Inline graphic = isovolumic contraction phase.
