Abstract
A human body simulation device includes a heart model simulating a heart, a beat portion for causing the heart model to beat, a blood vessel model simulating a blood vessel, a pulsation portion for sending a pulsated fluid into the blood vessel model, and a control portion for changing a beat rate of the beat portion and a pulsation rate of the pulsation portion depending on a prescribed heart rate.
Claims18
A human body simulation device comprising:
- a heart model simulating a heart;
- a beat pump configured to cause the heart model to beat;
- a blood vessel model simulating a blood vessel;
- a pulsation pump configured to send a pulsated fluid into the blood vessel model;
- a processor programmed to change a beat rate of the beat pump and a pulsation rate of the pulsation pump depending on a prescribed heart rate;
- a diaphragm model simulating a diaphragm;
- and
- a breathing portion causing the diaphragm model to simulate breathing with a breathing motion,
- wherein the diaphragm model is disposed under the heart model and in contact with the heart model such that the heart model is affected by the breathing motion.
A method for controlling a human body simulation device, the method comprising:
- beating a heart model simulating a heart;
- sending a pulsated fluid into a blood vessel model simulating a blood vessel;
- causing a diaphragm model to simulate breathing with a breathing motion;
- and
- changing a beat rate in the beating and a pulsation rate in the fluid-sending depending on a prescribed heart rate,
- wherein the diaphragm model is disposed under the heart model and in contact with the heart model such that the heart model is affected by the breathing motion.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing thereon a computer program that causes a processor to execute:
- beating a heart model simulating a heart;
- sending a pulsated fluid into a blood vessel model simulating a blood vessel;
- causing a diaphragm model to simulate breathing with a breathing motion;
- and
- changing a beat rate in the beating and a pulsation rate in the fluid-sending depending on a prescribed heart rate,
- wherein the diaphragm model is disposed under the heart model and in contact with the heart model such that the heart model is affected by the breathing motion.
