Comparison of the FE-predicted displacement errors at 70mmHg transvalvular pressure with an increasing level of model fidelity: a level I—isotropic material, b level II—transversely isotropic material with uniformly curvilinear fiber directions and identical fiber dispersions, c level III—transversely isotropic material with uniformly curvilinear fiber directions and mapped fiber dispersions, and d level IV—transversely isotropic material with mapped fiber directions (via the proposed mapping technique) and mapped fiber dispersions
