Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) is an effective treatment for patients with congestive heart failure and a wide QRS complex. However, up to 30% of patients are non-responders to therapy in terms of exercise capacity or left ventricular reverse remodelling. A number of controversies still remain surrounding patient selection, targeted lead implantation and optimisation of this important treatment. The development of biophysical models to predict the response to CRT represents a potential strategy to address these issues. In this article, we present how the personalisation of an electromechanical model of the myocardium can predict the acute haemodynamic changes associated with CRT. In order to introduce such an approach as a clinical application, we needed to design models that can be individualised from images and electrophysiological mapping of the left ventricle. In this paper the personalisation of the anatomy, the electrophysiology, the kinematics and the mechanics are described. The acute effects of pacing on pressure development were predicted with the in silico model for several pacing conditions on two patients, achieving good agreement with invasive haemodynamic measurements: the mean error on dP/dt(max) is 47.5±35mmHgs(-1), less than 5% error. These promising results demonstrate the potential of physiological models personalised from images and electrophysiology signals to improve patient selection and plan CRT.

An Algorithm for Robust and Efficient Location of T-Wave Ends in Electrocardiograms

Qinghua Zhang; Alfredo Illanes Manriquez; Claire Médigue; Yves Papelier; Michel Sorine

The purpose of this paper is to propose a new algorithm for T-wave end location in electrocardiograms, mainly through the computation of an indicator related to the area covered by the T-wave curve. Based on simple assumptions, essentially on the concavity of the T-wave form, it is formally proved that the maximum of the computed indicator inside each cardiac cycle coincides with the T-wave end. Moreover, the algorithm is robust to acquisition noise, to wave form morphological variations and to baseline wander. It is also computationally very simple: the main computation can be implemented as a simple finite impulse response filter. When evaluated with the PhysioNet QT database in terms of the mean and the standard deviation of the T-wave end location errors, the proposed algorithm outperforms the other algorithms evaluated with the same database, according to the most recent available publications up to our knowledge

A Biomechanical Model of Muscle Contraction

J. Bestel; Frédérique Clément; Michel Sorine

Models of the electro-mechanical activity of the cardiac muscle can be very useful in computing stress, strain and action potential fields from three-dimensional image processing. We designed a chemically-controlled constitutive law of cardiac myofibre mechanics, acting on the mesoscopic scale and devoted to be embedded into a macroscopic model. This law ensues from the modelling of the collective behaviour of actin-myosin molecular motors, acting on the nanoscopic scale to convert chemical into mechanical energy. The resulting dynamics of sarcomeres, acting on the microscopic scale, is shown to be consistent with the “sliding filament hypothesis”, which was first introduced by A. F. Huxley [1].

Dynamic Tire Friction Models for Combined Longitudinal and Lateral Vehicle Motion

Efstathios Velenis; Panagiotis Tsiotras; Carlos Canudas-de-Wit; Michel Sorine

An extension to the LuGre dynamic friction model from longitudinal to longitudinal/lateral motion is developed in this paper. Application of this model to a tyre yields a pair of partial differential equations that model the tyre-road contact forces and aligning moment. A comparison of the steady-state behaviour of the dynamic model with existing static tyre friction models is presented. This comparison allows one to determine realistic values of the parameters for the new dynamic model. Via the introduction of a set of mean states we reduce the partial differential equations to a lumped model governed by a set of three ordinary differential equations. Such a lumped form describes the aggregate effect of the friction forces and moments and it can be useful for control design and online estimation. A method to incorporate wheel rim rotation is also proposed. The proposed model is evaluated by comparing both its steady-state as well as its dynamic characteristics via numerical simulations. The results of the simulations corroborate steady-state and dynamic/transient tyre characteristics found in the literature.

Towards Model-Based Estimation of the Cardiac Electro-Mechanical Activity from ECG Signals and Ultrasound Images

Nicholas Ayache; Dominique Chapelle; Frédérique Clément; Yves Coudière; Hervé Delingette; Jean-Antoine Désidéri; Maxime Sermesant; Michel Sorine; José M. Urquiza

We present a 3D numerical representation of the heart which couples the electrical and biomechanical models. To achieve this, the FitzHugh-Nagumo equations are solved along with a constitutive law based on the Hill-Maxwell rheological law. Ultimately, the parameters of this generic model will be adjusted by comparing the actual patients ECG with computational results and the deformation of the biomechanical model with the geometric information extracted from the ultrasound images of the patients heart.

Personalised Electromechanical Model of the Heart for the Prediction of the Acute Effects of Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy

Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has been shown to be an effective adjunctive treatment for patients with dyssynchronous ventricular contraction and symptoms of the heart failure. However, clinical trials have also demonstrated that up to 30% of patients may be classified as non-responders. In this article, we present how the personalisation of an electromechanical model of the myocardium could help the therapy planning for CRT. We describe the four main components of our myocardial model, namely the anatomy, the electrophysiology, the kinematics and the mechanics. For each of these components we combine prior knowledge and observable parameters in order to personalise these models to patient data. Then the acute effects of a pacemaker on the cardiac function are predicted with the in silico model on a clinical case. This is a proof of concept of the potential of virtual physiological models to better select and plan the therapy.

Preliminary specificity study of the Bestel-Clement-Sorine electromechanical model of the heart using parameter calibration from medical images

Patient-specific cardiac modelling can help in understanding pathophysiology and predict therapy effects. This requires the personalization of the geometry, kinematics, electrophysiology and mechanics. We use the Bestel-Clément-Sorine (BCS) electromechanical model of the heart, which provides reasonable accuracy with a reduced parameter number compared to the available clinical data at the organ level. We propose a preliminary specificity study to determine the relevant global parameters able to differentiate the pathological cases from the healthy controls. To this end, a calibration algorithm on global measurements is developed. This calibration method was tested successfully on 6 volunteers and 2 heart failure cases and enabled to tune up to 7 out of the 14 necessary parameters of the BCS model, from the volume and pressure curves. This specificity study confirmed domain-knowledge that the relaxation rate is impaired in post-myocardial infarction heart failure and the myocardial stiffness is increased in dilated cardiomyopathy heart failures.

A denotational theory of synchronous reactive systems

Albert Benveniste; Paul Le Guernic; Yves Sorel; Michel Sorine

In this paper, systems which interact permanently with their environments are considered. Such systems are encountered, for instance, in real-time control or signal processing systems, C3-systems, and man-machine interfaces, to mention just a few cases. The design and implementation of such systems require a concurrent programming language which can be used to verify and synthesize the synchronization mechanisms, and to perform transformations of the concurrent source code to match a particular target architecture. Synchronous languages are convenient tools for such a purpose: they rely on the assumptions that: (1) internal actions of synchronous systems are instantaneous, and (2) communication with the environment is performed via instantaneous flashes involving some external stimuli. In this paper, we present a mathematical model of synchronous languages and illustrate its use on the Signal language. This model is denotational, and encompasses both relational and functional styles of specification. It allows us to answer fundamental questions related to synchronous languages, such as “what are the basic constructions which should be provided by such languages?”

A Physiologically-Based Model for the Active Cardiac Muscle Contraction

Dominique Chapelle; Frédérique Clément; Frank Génot; Patrick Le Tallec; Michel Sorine; José M. Urquiza

We present a 3Dmec hanical model for the behaviour of the cardiac muscle, based on a recently proposed model of myofibre contraction. The construction of the 3D model involves a rheological model similar to that of Hill-Maxwell. We then introduce some discretisation techniques adapted to our mechanical model, and we report on some preliminary numerical results.

Inverse Scattering for Soft Fault Diagnosis in Electric Transmission Lines

Qinghua Zhang; Michel Sorine; Mehdi Admane

Todays advanced reflectometry methods provide an efficient solution for the diagnosis of electric transmission line hard faults (open and short circuits), but they are much less efficient for soft faults, in particular, for faults resulting in spatially smooth variations of characteristic impedance. This paper attempts to fill an important gap for the application of the inverse scattering transform to reflectometry-based soft fault diagnosis: it clarifies the relationship between the reflection coefficient measured with reflectometry instruments and the mathematical object of the same name defined in the inverse scattering theory, by reconciling finite length transmission lines with the inverse scattering transform defined on the infinite interval. The feasibility of this approach is then demonstrated by numerical simulation of lossless transmission lines affected by soft faults, and by the solution of the inverse scattering problem effectively retrieving smoothly varying characteristic impedance profiles from reflection coefficients.
