Abstract

We want to be able to perform accurate simulations of a large number of cardiac cells based on mathematical models where each individual cell is represented in the model. This implies that the computational mesh has to have a typical resolution of a few µm leading to huge computational challenges. In this paper we use a certain operator splitting of the coupled equations and showthat this leads to systems that can be solved in parallel. This opens up for the possibility of simulating large numbers of coupled cardiac cells.
