Nonlinear physics of electrical wave propagation in the heart: a review [PDF]
, 2016 The beating of the heart is a synchronized contraction of muscle cells (myocytes) that are triggered by a periodic sequence of electrical waves (action potentials) originating in the sino-atrial node and propagating over the atria and the ventricles ...

Cardiac conduction system regeneration prevents arrhythmias after myocardial infarction [PDF]
Arrhythmias are a hallmark of myocardial infarction (MI) and increase patient mortality. How insult to the cardiac conduction system causes arrhythmias following MI is poorly understood.

Global alternans instability and its effect on non-linear wave propagation : dynamical Wenckebach block and self terminating spiral waves [PDF]
, 2016 The main mechanism of formation of reentrant cardiac arrhythmias is via formation of waveblocks at heterogeneities of cardiac tissue. We report that heterogeneity and the area of waveblock can extend itself in space and can result formation of new ...
