Merleau-Ponty and the Existential Conception of Science

Algoritmos paralelos e adaptativos no tempo e no espaço para simulação numérica da eletrofisiologia do coração

Computational models have become valuable tools for the study of the electrical behavior of the heart. However, the high complexity of the biophysical processes translates into expensive computational models. In this work we propose, implement and combine strategies using parallel computing and graphical processing unit (GPU), adaptive meshes in space and time adaptive methods in order to reduc...
