Notes:
As one kind of the most important cells in human body, myocardial cell becomes the focus ofattention, not only the biologist but also the researchers of mechanics. A new viscoelasticconstitutive model of the living myocardial cell is developed based on the micropipette suctionexperiment in which the surface of the cell is aspirated into a small glass tube while tracking theleading edge of its surface. Some numerical simulations are presented by finite element to modelthe whole process of micropipette suction of the myocardial cell. Meanwhile, a model cell with bothmechanical behavior and physiological function is being developed, to prove the viscoelasticconstitutive model and to predict more results of myocardial cell under different physiologyconditions
