FAU MoD Lecture: Physics-Based and Data-Driven-Based Algorithms for the Simulation of the Heart Function
Speaker: Prof. Dr. Alfio Quarteroni
Affiliation: Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy and Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland

Abstract. In this talk I will present a mathematical model that is suitable to simulate the cardiac function, thanks to its capability to describe the interaction between electrical, mechanical, and fluid-dynamical processes occurring in the heart.
The model comprises a system of nonlinear differential equations (either ordinary and partial) featuring a multi-physics and multi-scale nature. Efficient numerical strategies are devised to allow for the analysis of both heart function and dysfunction.These strategies rely on both classical physics-based numerical discretization methods and machine-learning algorithms, as well as on their interplay.
