Detailed Description

This class sets up Luo Rudy 1991 backward Euler cells with a change to parameters (G_si = 0) and S1-S2 stimulus pattern that together provoke spiral wave initiation.

Member Function Documentation

AbstractCardiacCell* LuoRudySpiralWaveCellFactory::CreateCardiacCellForTissueNode ( Node< 2 > * pNode ) [inline]

This method is provided by all factories, and returns an action potential model with the correct stimulus for that location. Here we set up some cells with S1 and S2, some with S1 and some with S2, to initiate a spiral wave. We also alter one of the conductances in the model to make the wave easier to initiate on this small domain.

Parameters:

pNode

the pointer to Node object we would like an action potential model for
