Analysis of the Activation Propagation Velocity in the Slab Model of the Cardiac Tissue
نویسنده
چکیده
In the study, the activation propagation velocity in cardiac tissue was simulated in COMSOL Multiphysics environment using the modified FitzHugh-Nagumo model of the electrical excitation. The influence of different model parameters and stimulation conditions on the activation propagation velocity was evaluated. The homogeneous slab model was used as the model of the atrial wall. Results of simulations could help to explain the differences in activation propagation velocities in measured data.
