Principal Investigator: Solomon Eisenberg

Research in the area of electrically mediated phenomena in tissues and biopolymers:

• Computational modeling of current distributions in the heart and thorax during electrical defibrillation
• Finite element modeling of magnetically induced currents in inhomogeneous anisotropic tissues and bodies
• Microcontinuum and microstructural models of electromechanical interactions in connective tissues; tissue mechanics
