Sensitivity analysis of a model of the cardiovascular system

Conf Proc IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc. 2006:2006:359-62. doi: 10.1109/IEMBS.2006.259559.

Abstract

In this paper we consider the sensitivity analysis of a model of the cardiovascular system (CVS) simulating the transition to aerobic exercise and where the control for the system is implemented via an optimal control. Classical and generalized sensitivity analysis are discussed and compared and their application to the CVS model is analyzed.
