The applets listed below explore different properties of restitution curves, alternans, and control of alternans.
Concordant and Discordant Alternans & Control of Alternans
Voltage alternans in single cells and APD Restitution
Normal restitution (1D map, period-doubling Hopf bifurcation)
Biphasic restitution (1D map, chaotic dynamics)
Restitution, alternans as a function of CL (1D map with pitchfork bifurcation)
Restitution, alternans as a function of CL (1D map with border-collision bifurcation)
Calcium alternans
Intracellular calcium alternans due to a steep relationship between the SR content and the calcium efflux, using the Eisner-Choi-Diaz-Neill-Trafford map
1D rings
Fenton-Karma model on a 1D ring and APD oscillations as a function of ring size (spatially discordant alternans)
1D partial alternans suppression (electrotonic effects)
1D alternans suppression (electrotonic effects)
Alternans Control
Control of APD alternans on a ring using an external signal
Control of APD alternans on a ring using an external signal (more control options)
