Mechanical waves in myelinated axon wall
Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets, Jüri Engelbrecht
The propagation of an action potential is accompanied by mechanical and thermal effects. Several mathematical models explain the deformation of the unmyelinated axon wall. In this…
On physical background of nerve pulse propagation: heat and energy
Jüri Engelbrecht, Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets
Recent studies have revealed the complex structure of nerve signals in axons. Besides the electrical signal, mechanical and thermal effects are also detected in many experimental s…
Modelling of processes in nerve fibres at the interface of physiology and mathematics
Jüri Engelbrecht, Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets
The in silico simulations are widely used in contemporary systems biology including the analysis of nerve pulse propagation. As known from numerous experiments, the propagation of…
Mathematics of nerve signals
Jüri Engelbrecht, Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets
Mathematical models describing the signals propagating in nerve fibres are described. The emphasis is on the mathematical structures of governing equations while the extremely rich…
Primary and secondary components of nerve signals
Jüri Engelbrecht, Kert Tamm, Tanel Peets
The action potential propagating in a nerve fibre generates accompanying mechanical and thermal effects. The whole signal is therefore an ensemble which includes primary and second…
Temperature changes accompanying signal propagation in axons
Kert Tamm, Jüri Engelbrecht, Tanel Peets
In this paper mathematical models are formulated in order to simulate heat production and corresponding temperature changes which accompany the propagation of an axon potential. Ba…
