Detailed Description

Provides a stimulus between two cells dependent on the difference between their transmembrane potential. This stimulus represents current flow across a Purkine- Ventricular junction.

I_pvj = (Vm - Vp)/R

where Vm is the transmembrane potential in the ventricular myocyte, Vp is the transmembrane potential in the Purkinje myocyte and R is the resistance across the junction.

Constructor.

Note that Purkinje-ventricular junctions default to generating stimuli for ventricular models, not Purkinje models.

Parameters

rJunctionResistance

The resistance across the junction
