Drift of Scroll Wave Filaments in an Anisotropic Model of the Left Ventricle of the Human Heart

Figure 6

Residual circumferential speed of the drifting filament after stabilization at the attractors shown in Figure 5 for the cases of the spherical (a) and the normal LV shape (b). The -axis is the apical thickness , the -axis is the speed, mm/s. Different lines correspond to different anisotropy ratios.
