Hello,
In working through the cardiac mechanics benchmark case study I had a question I am hoping someone may be able to explain so I can better understand the material model part of it.
In the uncoupled prescribed uniaxial active contraction, is the active contraction along the prescribed fiber direction as defined by the (a) and (d) values under the mat_axis header from the C++ code. If so, what are the theta and phi variable representing?
Thanks so much for anyone's help,
Kiera
