Mechanics model generation: Starting from a patient specific MRI scan (A) a segmentation was performed (B) which was then upsampled and smoothed (C). Myocardial fibers were generated in the tissue according to Bayer et al. (2012) (D). A labeled FE geometry ${\Omega }_{\text{s},\text{total}}^0$ including the blood pool was generated (G). The geometry has been sliced to reveal the blood pool and valves and has been color coded according to the labels defined in Equation (3). Boundaries ${\Gamma }_{\text{s},\text{D}}^0$ used for prescribing homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions are sketched as blue curves. From this mesh the EM submesh ${\Omega }_{\text{s}}^0$ (E) and the unsmoothed blood pool (F) were extracted. Boundary ${\Gamma }_{\text{s},\text{N}}^0$ was used to prescribe pressure boundary conditions inside the LV and ${\Gamma }_{\text{s},\text{bp}}^0$ is the surface of the blood pool.
