Cardiac arrhythmias have been traditionally simulated using continuous models that
assume tissue homogeneity and use a relatively large spatial discretization. However, it is …

The inclusion of nonconducting media, mimicking cardiac fibrosis, in two models of cardiac
tissue produces the formation of ectopic beats. The fraction of nonconducting media in …

Computational models in cardiac electrophysiology are notorious for long runtimes,
restricting the numbers of nodes and mesh elements in the numerical discretisations used …

Fibrosis, the excess of extracellular matrix, can affect, and even block, propagation of action
potential in cardiac tissue. This can result in deleterious effects on heart function, but the …

Key aspects of cardiac electrophysiology, such as slow conduction, conduction block, and
saltatory effects have been the research topic of many studies since they are strongly related …

Electrical propagation in cardiac tissue is a discrete or discontinuous phenomenon that
reflects the complexity of the anatomical structures and their organization in the heart, such …

The arrhythmogenic role of discrete cardiac propagation may be assessed by comparing
discrete (fine-grained) and equivalent continuous (coarse-grained) models. We aim to …

La fibrillation auriculaire (FA) est le type d'arythmie cardiaque le plus fréquent. Cependant,
ses mécanismes sont encore mal compris et le développement de stratégies thérapeutiques …

Cardiac arrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and atrial
fibrillation, are associated with ectopic triggers such as those resulting from …

Cardiac arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia are closely
associated with microscopic fibrotic changes in cardiac structure that result in a …
