Optimisation of Ionic Models to Fit Tissue Action Potentials: Application to 3D Atrial Modelling

Figure 5

3D atrial finite element meshes. Anterior and posterior views of the (a) coarse and (b) refined atrial meshes. (a) illustrates the 3D realistic version of the atria with finite wall thickness, whilst (b) illustrates the 2D shell surface version. Insets: zoomed views of the inferior vena cava (IVC) highlighting the 3D finite wall and shell wall structures, respectively.
