Cardiac Membrane simulation Code

This directory contains the complete set of MATLAB functions for simulating the behavior of the cardiac membrane according to the approach of the first Luo Rudy model. Code was the work of (mostly) Quan Ni and me.

Right click on the file to download it. Note, there is also a tar archive that contains all the files. You should be able to download it too an unpack it using a tar utility.

List of MATLAB functions

I have organized these into groups but there are dependencies across groups to bet to download the whole set of files.

Action potential generation

Map.m : main program to make action potentials.
Map_demo.m : driver program for Map.m.
Constant.m : set contants for the simulations
IK.m : computation of potassium current.
IK1.m : computation of another potassium current.
IKp.m : computaiton of yet another potassium current.
INa.m : computation of sodium current.
Ib.m : computation of background current.
Isi.m : computation of calcium current.

Voltage clamp

VClampK.m : voltage clamp for potassium.
VClampNa.m : voltage clamp for sodium.
VClampsi.m : voltage clamp for calcium.

Coupling 2 cells

Coupling.m : experiment with cell to cell coupling in a 2-cell pair.
Constant.m : set contants for the simulations
Coupling_demo.m : driver program for the coupling experiments.
Diffusion.m : simulation of ion diffusion.
coupleKo.m : another coupling test program.
coupleSeq.m : another coupling test program.
velocity_Ggap.m : another coupling test program.
