Detailed Description

template<unsigned DIM>
class CardiacElectroMechanicsProblem< DIM >

CardiacElectroMechanicsProblem

For solving full electro-mechanical problems.

Solves a monodomain problem (diffusion plus cell models) on a (fine) electrics mesh, and a mechanics problem (finite elasticity plus NHS cell models) on a coarse mesh. An implicit scheme (Jon Whiteley's algorithm) be be used.

For solving problems on regular grids use CardiacElectroMechProbRegularGeom

The implicit algorithm:

Store the position in the electrics mesh of each quad point in the mechanics mesh For every time: Solve the monodomain problem (ie integrate ODEs, solve PDE) Get intracellular [Ca] at each electrics node and interpolate on each mechanics quad point Set [Ca] on each NHS model (one for each point) Solve static finite elasticity problem implicity

Note: invC is not used in the monodomain equations (code added but commented out) we have shown that this does not affect the mechanics results (might affect the electrics).
