Illustrations of: (a) the heart model contained in a cryobag; (b) the heart model contained in a cylindrical container; (c) the cross section of the FEA mesh used for the heart-cryobag case, where Pa is the volumetric center of the domain, Pb is the center of the short cryobag edge, and Pc is the center of the bag’s surface; and (d) the cross section of the FEA mesh used for the heart-cylinder model, where Pd is the volumetric center of the domain, Pe is the base edge, and Pf is the mid-height on the container’s lateral surface.
