The significant effect of the choice of ionic current integration method in cardiac electro-physiological simulations (2011)
Journal Article
Pathmanathan, P., Mirams, G. R., Southern, J., & Whiteley, J. P. (2011). The significant effect of the choice of ionic current integration method in cardiac electro-physiological simulations. International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, 27(11), 1751-1770. https://doi.org/10.1002/cnm.1438

Finite element (FE) cardiac electro-physiology solvers commonly have ionic current determined at mesh nodes but required element interiors. We consider two interpolation approaches: (i) ionic current interpolation (ICI), where nodal ionic currents ar...

In this note we introduce the notion of t-analytic sets. Using this concept, we construct a class of closed prime ideals in Banach function algebras and discuss some problems related to Alling’s conjecture in H infinity. A description of all closed t...
