چکیده

Fundamental problems in electrophysiology can be studied by computationally modeling and simulating the associated microscopic and macroscopic bioelectric fields. To study such fields computationally, researchers have developed a variety of numerical and computational techniques. Advances in computer architectures have allowed researchers to model increasingly complex biophysical systems. Modeling such systems requires a researcher to apply a wide variety of computational and numerical methods to describe the underlying physics and physiology of the associated three-dimensional geometries. Issues naturally arise as to the accuracy and efficiency of such methods. In this paper we review computational and numerical methods of solving bioelectric field problems. The motivating applications represent a class of bioelectric field problems that arise in electrocardiography and electroencephalography.

Reducing Computational and Memory Cost of Substructuring Technique in Finite Element Models

Substructuring in the finite element method is a technique that reduces computational cost and memory usage for analysis of complex structures. The efficiency of this technique depends on the number of substructures in different problems. Some subdivisions increase computational cost, but require little memory usage and vice versa. In the present study, the cost functions of computations and me...
