We develop and investigate a novel extravascular VAD technology that provides biventricular, epicardial pressure support for the failing heart. This novel VAD concept avoids blood contact that is accompanied with typical complications such as coagulation and infections. To date, in vivo porcine model results with a prototype of the implant exist, further studies to improve the implant's performance and promote its applicability in humans are needed.<\/jats:p><jats:p>In this contribution, we present a personalised functional digital twin of the heart, the vascular system, and the novel VAD technology in terms of a calibrated, customized computational model. The calibration procedure is based on patient\u2010specific measurements and is performed by solving an inverse problem.<\/jats:p><jats:p>This in silico model is able to (a) confirm in vivo experimental data, (b) predict healthy and pathologic ventricular function, and (c) assess the beneficial impact of the novel VAD concept to a high level of fidelity.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The model shows very good agreement with in vivo data and reliably predicts increases in stroke volume and left ventricular pressure with increasing ventricular support. Furthermore, the digital twin allows insight into quantities that are poorly or not at all amenable in any experimental setup.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusively, the model's ability to link integral hemodynamic variables to local tissue mechanical deformation makes it a highly valuable tool for the dimensioning of novel VAD technologies and future treatment strategies in heart failure.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The presented in silico twin enhances in vivo studies by facilitating the accessibility and increasing the range of quantities of interest. Because of its flexibility in the assessment of design variants and optimization loops, it may substantially contribute to a reduction of the amount of animal experiments in this and similar settings.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/cnm.3233","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,3]],"date-time":"2019-07-03T06:04:19Z","timestamp":1562133859000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["An in silico twin for epicardial augmentation of the failing\u00a0heart"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"35","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4575-9120","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marc","family":"Hirschvogel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mechanics &amp; High Performance Computing Group Technische Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen  Parkring 35 85748 Garching b.
