Action potentials and solitons
Jüri Engelbrecht, Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets
During the last decade, the notion of solitons has been mentioned in neuroscience related to the propagation of action potentials (AP). In this paper, based on many studies in math…
On phenomenology of physical effects in axons
Jüri Engelbrecht, Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets
This paper deals with the mathematical modelling of signal propagation in nerve fibres. Due to the complexity of the processes where electrical, mechanical, and thermal effects are…
The modelling of the action potentials in myelinated nerve fibres
Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets, Jüri Engelbrecht
The initial version of the planned paper has gone through a major revision in 2025. First, the paper ended up growing a bit too long, and as a result of that, we decided to split i…
From modelling to understanding: the signals in nerves
Jüri Engelbrecht, Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets
This paper attempts to review our studies on the propagation of signals in nerves over the past decade. The need for interdisciplinary studies is stressed that helps to understand…
