Equations (6.35) and (6.36) can be used to determine the pressure–flow relationship
at each junction in the large coronary arteries.
Branching Angles
In order to calculate the loss coefficient, K, the optimum branching angles
(Fig. 6.14c) are calculated using the formulations in Murray (1926) and Zamir
(1978). The optimal branching angles are given as a function of area ratios as:

In order to solve the nonlinear hyperbolic 1D equations, the time-centered implicit
(Trapezoidal) finite difference method (stable and second-order in both time and
space) is adopted. The details of the mathematical derivations are outlined in Huo

different meshes is set to 1 10

Diameter and length are obtained from morphometric measurements (Kassab, Berkley, & Fung,

Network Reconstruction
Microvascular Network Stochastic network reconstruction is based on statistical
morphometric data (Kassab et al., 1999; Kassab & Fung, 1994; Kassab, Lin, &
Fung, 1994; Kassab, Rider, et al., 1993). The first network (Fig. 6.15) features
174 segments: 20 arterioles, 123 capillaries, and 31 venules. Each network is
supplied by an order 3 (17 μm diameter) arteriole (microvascular inlet) and two
order 3 (30 μm diameter) venules (microvascular outlet). The volume of myocardium tissue supplied by this network (determined from the network dimensions) is
2.4 10
6
mL. The network capillary density is roughly 2800 capillaries/mm2,
consistent with measured data.

Arterial and Venous Trees To significantly reduce the computational load asso-
ciated with a full-scale network (consisting of millions of vessel segments) but still
retain realistic morphometric features, the reconstructed microvascular networks are
placed at four representative transmural locations: at sub-epicardium (myocardial
relative depth, MRD ¼ 0.125), midwall (MRD ¼ 0.325 and MRD ¼ 0.625), and
sub-endocardium (MRD ¼ 0.875). These microvascular networks are interconnected
and linked with the major epicardial vessels via intramyocardial arterial and venous
tree-like networks, taken to be symmetric and dichotomous (Fig. 6.15) up to order
8 vessels. These are reconstructed based on the morphometric data (Kassab et al.,
1994; Kassab, Imoto, et al., 1993), but assigned identical daughter vessels diameters,
lengths, and outlet flow conditions at each bifurcation. The MRD of interconnecting

vessels is assigned intermediate values, depending on their transmural location. This
reconstructed network had 906 segments, representing the flow in four characteristic
myocardial layers.
Mechanics of Vessel-in-Myocardium System
Following Vis, Sipkema, and Westerhof (1995), a simplified geometry is considered:
each vessel is surrounded by a myocardial tissue of circular cross-section
(Fig. 6.16e). The myocardial outer diameter is chosen to satisfy the measured 1:7
vessel-to-myocardium area ratio (Aliev et al., 2002; Spaan, 1991). Both tissues are
considered incompressible and hyperelastic, having a common interface. Each
vessel diameter is determined by stress analysis based on the force equilibrium
equations of the two concentric cylinders (vessel wall and myocardial tissue)
under the prescribed loading conditions of dynamic axial stretch λ
ratio between loaded and unloaded lengths, see below) and trans-luminal pressures
ΔP. The model equations are presen ted below, foll owed by analysis of the vessel and
myocardium reference configurations.

Vessel and Myocardi um Constitutive Properties Vessel wall mechanics is studied in the left anterior descending (LAD) artery under positive trans-luminal pressures (Wang et al., 2006) and represented by Fung-type exponential material law
(Algranati et al., 2010). The corresponding parameters are estimated for 10 samples.
z

Appendix 3: Myocardial–Vessel Interaction (Algranati et al., 2010) 411
https://t.me/med1917
The passive and active myocardial mechanics are previously studied on 7 samples
and described by invariant based material laws (Lin & Yin, 1998).
To obtain a representative vessel/myocardium pair, each of the 10 vessel parameter sets is combined with each of the 7 parameter sets of the passive myocardial
sample, and properties of each of the vessel/myocardium pairs is used as inputs to
evaluate the passive in vivo pressure–diameter relationship. The pair having the best
fit to the in situ data of swine large coronary arteries (Hamza et al., 2003) (Fig. 6.16f)
is selected for further analysis of MV I mecha nisms.
Reference Configurations Stress analysis requires knowledge of the reference
stress-free configuration of both ve ssel and myocardium. These references have to
be estimated in order to determine the true states of stress and strain. The available
data consists of statistics of the in situ diameter, length, and wall thickness (Guo &
Kassab, 2004; Kassab et al., 1994; Kassab & Fung, 1994; Kassab, Rider, et al.,
1993) taken under vasodilation, no myocardial activation, and fixed stretch and
intravascular pressure (vessel configuration). The data however, do not account for
transmural morphometric heterogeneity. To incorporate the latter, the reconstructed
diameters are first modified by up to 10% from the vessel cast values in a linear
transmural manner to comply with the observed twice higher endocardial than
epicardial flows in diastolic vasodilated hearts (Goto et al., 1991). To obtain the
reference configurations, the vessel/myocardium equilibrium equations (Eq. 6.42)
are solved subject to the relevant loading boundary conditions. The latter are as
follows:
1. Vessel Configuration (Fig. 6.16a): Kassab and co-workers (Guo & Kassab, 2004;
Kassab et al., 1994; Kassab & Fung, 1994; Kassab, Imoto, et al., 1993) measured
vessel diameters under fixed cast pressure. The loading conditions in this con fig-
uration are ΔP

prescribed by the mapping from the vessel cast configuration (Fig. 6.16a). The

3. Untethered Configuration (Fig. 6.16c): Unloaded coronary vessels are not stressfree. When myocardial tethering is removed, large epicardial arteries are found to
shorten by 40% in swine (Wang et al., 2006). The untethered configuration is
obtained upon mapping from the tethered unloaded configuration (Fig. 6.16b).
The loading conditions in this untethered state are

4. Stress-Free (Reference) Configuration (Fig. 6.16d): The tethered-free vessel and
myocardium are still not stress-free, but rather loaded by internal residual stress.
Their magnitudes are quantified by the measured opening angles (OA) of the
corresponding cylinders when cut open radially (Chap. 3). For coronary vessels,

OA are specimen dependent. For the myocardium OA ¼ 2.75 rad. (Lanir et al.,
1996). The stress-free reference configuration is obtained by mapping between
configurations A and D (Fig. 6.16). Stress and strain analysis is possible if the
radii and stretch ratios at each configuration are known. Since they are not, they
are solved by applying the vessel-in-myocardium model equations under the six
loading boundary conditions listed above (one in section i, two in ii and three in
iii), subject to the assumptions of incompressibility of and common interface
between cylinders (Algranati et al., 2010a). The solution of this highly nonlinear

Loaded Vessel Diameter (Fig. 6.17e) With the stress-free configuration deter-
mined, the vasodilated vessel diameters are evaluated (using the above MATLAB
codes) to optimally satisfy force equilibrium (Eq. 6.42), subject to the vessel internal
and external (MVI dependent) loading conditions. This is done for arteries, capillaries, and veins, under prescr ibed conditions of trans-luminal pressure, dynamic
axial stretch, and myocardial activation. To obtain the corresponding in vivo diameters required for the network flow analysis, modifications are needed to account for
the vessel dynamic axial stretch during the cardiac cycle, and for the autoregulatory
myogenic response and myocardial state of activation, as discussed below.
Dynamic Vessel Stretch (λ
) Vessels are dynamically stretched during the cardiac
z
cycle, together with the surrounding myocardium. This stretch, added to the constant
in situ tethering stretch, affects the vessel diameter. This effect can be evaluated by
solving the vessel-in-myocardium model at each time point and for each vessel. To
reduce computational load, the stretched diameter is evaluated by linear interpolation
between the vessel highest and lowest levels of stretch. The maximum and mean
errors associated with this interpolation are found to be 4% and <1% respectively, in
all vessels at all pressures, in either passive or fully active myocardium. The dynamic
vessel stretch depends on the vessel orientation. Vessels oriented along myocytes
stretch in proportion to the myocytes stretch, whereas vessels perpendicular to
myocytes stretch in proportion to myocytes thickening, and therefore shorten during
myocyte elongation. Hence, penetrating vessels (orders 5–8) are assumed to stretch
in proportion to the myocardial wall thickening, whereas capillaries (except for
cross-connections) are assumed to stretch in proportion to the sarcomere stretch
ratio. Other vessels are assumed to be randomly oriented, and therefore unaffected
by myocardium contraction (i.e., no dynamic stretch).
®
Myocardial Activation This is accounted for by calculating the loaded diameters
under passive and fully active myocardium (D
under intermediate activation is determined as a linear interpolation between these
two states.
Autoregulation The entire complexity of tone regulation is not explicitly
accounted for. Yet, in order to compare predictions with in vivo (autoregulated)
data, arterioles diameters are reduced by 30% from their calculated dilated values, in
line with data for coronary arteries of <200 μm diameter (Kuo et al., 1995).
