Computational 3D models of human atria and torso with encoded anatomical and functional heterogeneity. The finite element model of the atria is a multi-layer mesh with a homogeneous wall thickness between 600 and 900 μm (754.893 nodes and 515.010 elements), built with linear hexahedral elements and with regular spatial resolution of 300 µm. The model consists of: 21 regions with 53 sub-divisions representing the detailed description of fibre orientation; electrophysiological heterogeneity represented by 8 cellular models with differences in the action potential properties; and conduction velocities and anisotropy ratios tuned to each atrial region. The torso was modelled using a dataset obtained from the online open repository at the Centre for Integrative Biomedical Computing (CBIC) from University of Utah. The torso model has 190.804 nodes and 1.149.531 tetrahedral elements with a spatial resolution of 0.6 mm. It has 6 different regions: lungs, bones, liver, ventricle, blood pools, and flesh.
