Numerical study of defibrillation mechanisms using a one-dimensional model of cardiac tissue

In the study presented in this thesis we have used one-dimensional model to study mechanisms associated with the application of the external stimulus to the cardiac tissue. Arrhythmic dynamics is approximated with the reentrant wave on a ring of cardiac tissue. Successful defibrillation is modeled w...
