Mechanics promotes coherence in heterogeneous active media
Soling Zimik, Sitabhra Sinha
Synchronization of activity among myocytes constituting vital organs, e.g., the heart, is crucial for physiological functions. Self-organized coordination in such heterogeneous ens…
Spiral-wave dynamics in excitable media: Insights from dynamic mode decomposition
Mahesh Kumar Mulimani, Soling Zimik, Jaya Kumar Alageshan +1
Spiral waves are ubiquitous spatiotemporal patterns that occur in various excitable systems. In cardiac tissue, the formation of these spiral waves is associated with life-threaten…
An in silico study of electrophysiological parameters that affect the spiral-wave frequency in mathematical models for cardiac tissue
Mahesh Kumar Mulimani, Soling Zimik, Rahul Pandit
Spiral waves of excitation in cardiac tissue are associated with life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. It is, therefore, important to study the electrophysiological factors that af…
Ionic-heterogeneity-induced spiral- and scroll-wave turbulence in mathematical models of cardiac tissue
Soling Zimik, Rupamanjari Majumder, Rahul Pandit
Spatial variations in the electrical properties of cardiac tissue can occur because of cardiac diseases. We introduce such gradients into mathematical models for cardiac tissue and…
Instability of spiral and scroll waves in the presence of a gradient in the fibroblast density: the effects of fibroblast-myocyte coupling
Soling Zimik, Rahul Pandit
Fibroblast-myocyte coupling can modulate electrical-wave dynamics in cardiac tissue. In diseased hearts, the distribution of fibroblasts is heterogeneous, so there can be gradients…
