Computer-based system adapted to create a representation of mechanical and flow-mechanical function of a δV-pump. A mathematical modeling algorithm is used based upon a transforming element adapted to connect different physical domains via a transforming value. The system comprises an upper transforming element (TF1) and a lower transforming element (TF2) each having a flow domain (fd1, fd2) and a mechanical domain (md1, md2), the upper transforming element is provided with a transforming value A1 and the lower transforming element is provided with a transforming value A1+A2, wherein A1 and A2>0. The upper and lower transforming elements are interconnected such that their mechanical domains are connected, said mechanical domains are provided with a control value representing a directional measure (F) arranged to intermittently and simultaneously activate said mechanical domains of the transforming elements. By interconnecting two δV-pump representations the pumping action of a heart may be simulated.
Computer-based system adapted to create a representation of mechanical and flow-mechanical function of a ΔV-pump using a mathematical modeling algorithm based upon transforming elements adapted to connect different physical domains via transforming values;
Computer-based system according to any preceding claim, characterized in that a second non-return valve element is provided at the outflow of the flow domain of the lower transforming element.
Computer-based system according to any preceding claim, characterized in that said connection of the mechanical domains of the transforming elements is provided with a non-linear R-element representing damping or a movement restriction.
Computer-based system adapted to create a representation of a heart, characterized in that the representation of the heart comprises two mutually cooperating representations of the ΔV-pump according to any preceding claim.
Computer-based system according to any preceding claims, characterized in that said representation is remotely accessible via a commonly available network, e.g. Internet.
