Abstract:This work was set out to gain further insight into the kinetics of the human heart valve leaflet. The Korakianitis and Shi lumped parameter model was adopted for this study. The fixed points were determined, and then, their stability properties were assessed by evaluating eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrices. Normal physiological parameters for the valve model were simulated; based on which, a local bifurcation diagram was generated. Phase portraits were plotted from simulated responses, and were used to obser… Show more
