#### Aims
|
|
|
We model and simulate the biomechanical behaviour of the elastic **mitral valve soft tissue** in the human heart, subjected to surgical manipulation during and after **annuloplasty** surgery. A segmented mitral valve geometry is meshed and annotated in order for an FEM simulation, and boundary conditions are defined to model the natural forces during the cardiac cycle and the external forces through annuloplasty.
