Re-entrant waves and their elimination in a model of mammalian ventricular tissue

V.N. Biktashev , A.V. Holden

June 29, 1997

The vulnerability to re-entrant wave propagation, its characteristics (period, meander and stability), the effects of rotational transmural anisotropy, and the control of re-entrant waves by small amplitude perturbations and large amplitude defibrillating shocks are investigated theoretically and numerically for models based on high order, stiff biophysically derived excitation equations.
