Abstract :
Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of death in the
world. Computational and mathematical methods provide
a useful tool to better understand heart and vessel problems. This special issue focuses on various computational
and mathematical methods to model cardiac disorders, to
understand the existing mathematical challenges, to explore
new directions in modeling of cardiovascular dynamics
and cardiac rhythm abnormalities, and to develop cardiac
related mathematical applications in clinical and emergency
situations.
