Simulation Outputs

The Living Heart model generates a variety of standard output variables, such as stress, strain, and displacement. You can use Physics Results Explorer on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to view the output in various forms, such as deformed shape and contour plots, time history plots, and animations.

In addition, you can view field output or history plots from the following solution dependent state variables (SDV) that are used by the mechanical model:

  • SDV1: Magnitude of active stress in the fiber direction at the integration point
  • SDV2: Magnitude of stretch in the fiber direction at the integration point
  • SDV3: Not currently used
  • SDV4: The electrical activation time (in seconds) of the tissue at the integration point
