Detailed Description

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
class MonodomainSolver< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >

A monodomain solver, which uses various assemblers to set up the monodomain linear system.

The discretised monodomain equation leads to the linear system (see FEM implementations document)

( (chi*C/dt) M + K ) V^{n+1} = (chi*C/dt) M V^{n} + M F^{n} + c_surf

where chi is the surface-area to volume ratio, C the capacitance, dt the timestep M the mass matrix, K the stiffness matrix, V^{n} the vector of voltages at time n, F^{n} the vector of (chi*Iionic + Istim) at each node, and c_surf a vector arising from any surface stimuli (usually zero).

This solver uses two assemblers, MonodomainAssembler to assemble the LHS matrix, [(chi*C/dt) M + K], and also to compute c_surf, and MassMatrixAssembler to assemble the mass matrix M used on the RHS. Note that MonodomainAssembler itself calls: MassMatrixAssembler for M (as this class does directly for RHS), and MonodomainStiffnessMatrixAssembler for K.

Also allows state variable interpolation (SVI) to be used on elements for which it will be needed, if the appropriate HeartConfig boolean is set. See wiki page ChasteGuides/StateVariableInterpolation for more details on this. In this case the equation is ( (chi*C/dt) M + K ) V^{n+1} = (chi*C/dt) M V^{n} + M F^{n} + c_surf + c_correction and another assembler is used to create the c_correction.
