Detailed Description

Provides a periodic square-wave stimulus.

Definition at line 48 of file RegularStimulus.hpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

RegularStimulus::RegularStimulus ( double  magnitudeOfStimulus,
double  duration,
double  period,
double  startTime,
double  stopTime = DBL_MAX 
)

Create a new stimulus.

Parameters
magnitudeOfStimulusThe size of the stimulus
durationHow long the square wave is applied for
periodThe time between square waves being applied
startTimeThe time at which the first wave is applied
stopTimeThe time the stimulus is removed (defaults to DBL_MAX if omitted)

Definition at line 43 of file RegularStimulus.cpp.

Get the magnitude of stimulus at time 'time'

Parameters
timeThe current time
Returns
Magnitude of stimulus

Implements AbstractStimulusFunction.

Reimplemented in RegularStimulusZeroNetCharge.

template<class Archive >
void RegularStimulus::serialize ( Archive &  archive,
const unsigned int  version 
)
inlineprivate

Archive the simple stimulus, never used directly - boost uses this.

Parameters
archive
version

References mDuration, mMagnitudeOfStimulus, mPeriod, mStartTime, and mStopTime.

void RegularStimulus::SetDuration ( double  duration)

set the length ('duration') of the stimulus square wave.

Parameters
durationThe stimulus duration to use.

Definition at line 113 of file RegularStimulus.cpp.

References mDuration.

void RegularStimulus::SetMagnitude ( double  magnitude)

Set the magnitude of the stimulus to apply. Takes units of uA/cm^2 in single cell simulations or uA/cm^3 in tissue simulations

See https://chaste.cs.ox.ac.uk/trac/wiki/ChasteGuides/ChasteUnits for a full discussion of this.

Parameters
magnitudeThe magnitude of stimulus to apply.

References mMagnitudeOfStimulus.

void RegularStimulus::SetPeriod ( double  period)

set the pacing cycle length ('period') of the stimulus.

Parameters
periodThe stimulus pacing cycle length to use.

Definition at line 108 of file RegularStimulus.cpp.

References mPeriod.

void RegularStimulus::SetStartTime ( double  startTime)

Set the stimulus to start at a particular time.

Parameters
startTimethe time the stimulus should begin.

Definition at line 118 of file RegularStimulus.cpp.

References mStartTime.

void RegularStimulus::SetStopTime ( double  stopTime)

Set the stop time for this stimulus. It will never be applied after this time.

Parameters
stopTime
