RT Journal Article T1 Object-oriented modeling and simulation of the closed loop cardiovascular system by using SIMSCAPE A1 Fernández de Cañete, Javier A1 Del Saz-Orozco, Pablo A1 Moreno Boza, Daniel A1 Duran Venegas, Eduardo AB The modeling of physiological systems via mathematical equations reflects the calculation procedure more than the structure of the real system modeled, with the simulation environment SIMULINK™ being one of the best suited to this strategy. Nevertheless, object-oriented modeling is spreading in current simulation environments through the use of the individual components of the model and its interconnections to define the underlying dynamic equations. In this paper we describe the use of the SIMSCAPE™ simulation environment in the object-oriented modeling of the closed loop cardiovascular system. The described approach represents a valuable tool in the teaching of physiology for graduate medical students.
