The conceptual premise of the proposed research is that integrating new modeling and computational approaches into the analysis of heart function will enable the development of transformative simulation-guided analytical tools for characterizing heart function in the not-too-distant future. The goal of the project is to develop multi-physics models of ventricles in normal and abnormal hearts that run efficiently on large-scale, heterogeneous computer systems. The research will focus on applying these computational tools to healthy hearts and also to those with arrhythmia or other disorders. One novel aspect of the work incorporates the direct computation of heart sounds which should significantly advance non-invasive diagnosis of diastolic dysfunction. Beyond cardiac function and heart disease, the impact of the research extends to the areas of computational biophysics, biomechanics, computer engineering and fluid mechanics, as well as to other organ systems. The research will produce an integrated array of simulation tools for electromechanical/hemodynamical modeling in normal and diseased hearts that will be made available to the broader community though effective data management. Research training of students and postdocs will contribute to a new generation of scientists and engineers who can apply computational thinking across disciplinary boundaries. Educational impact within the PIs? universities will be enhanced by translating the research into new and existing courses; impact outside the PIs institutions will be achieved via planned high-school and minority-focused outreach activities.

拟议的研究的概念前提是，将新的建模和计算方法整合到心脏功能分析中，将使变换模拟引导的分析工具能够在不久的将来的心脏功能来开发。该项目的目的是在正常和异常心脏中开发多物理模型，这些模型在大规模的，异质的计算机系统上有效地运行。该研究将着重于将这些计算工具应用于健康心脏，以及心律不齐或其他疾病的人。这项工作的一个新方面包含了心脏声音的直接计算，该计算应显着提高舒张功能障碍的非侵入性诊断。除心脏功能和心脏病外，研究的影响还扩展到计算生物物理学，生物力学，计算机工程和流体力学以及其他器官系统的领域。这项研究将在正常和患病的心脏中生成一系列用于机电/血液动力学建模的仿真工具，通过有效的数据管理将为更广泛的社区提供。对学生和博士后的研究培训将为新一代的科学家和工程师做出贡献，他们可以在跨学科边界应用计算思维。 PI中的教育影响？通过将研究转化为新课程和现有课程，可以增强大学。 PIS机构以外的影响将通过计划的高中和以少数族裔为中心的外展活动来实现。
