Part II: Finite Element Methods for Action Potential Propagation

Derivation of governing equation: cable theory – 1D Consider a cell as a cable with a conductive interior (cytoplasm) surrounded by an insulator (cell membrane) with: –axial current, I a (mA) –membrane current, I m (mA/cm) –resistance, R (m  /cm) Using Ohm’s Law and conservation of charge we get: Assume I m is both capacitive and ionic: I m = I c + I ion where Therefore: V m (x,t) IaIa ImIm

Review of weighted residual methods

Collocation-Galerkin FE Method Collocation uses a weighted residual formulation, but the weights are Dirac delta functions. It solves strong form of PDEs Therefore needs high-order elements to interpolate second derivatives in  D  V m Cubic Hermite interpolation of V m 4 DOF/node in 2D 8 DOF/node in 3D Collocation points are Gauss-Legendre quadrature points Need one collocation point for each nodal degree of freedom Galerkin approximation of no-flux boundary condition Rogers, JM and McCulloch, AD, IEEE Trans Biomed Eng. 1994; 41:

Collocation-Galerkin FE Method Rogers, JM and McCulloch, AD, IEEE Trans Biomed Eng. 1994; 41:

Collocation Galerkin FE Method: Governing equation is a non-linear reaction diffusion equation: We seek an approximate solution to the reaction- diffusion equation in the form: We begin by rewriting the governing equation in component form:  are the element basis functions (functions of the element coordinates  i ) Here D ij are functions of the global coordinates, x i. It is more convenient for us to express them with respect to the local fiber coordinate system, v p, as the diffusion tensor then becomes diagonal:

Collocation Galerkin FE Method: We then transform the spatial derivatives of Vm to the local finite element coordinate system,  : In order to evolve a solution in time, a system of ODEs must be derived from this equation. Here we use the collocation method to satisfy the PDE at a discrete set of points.

Collocation Galerkin FE Method: Thus we end up with a system of equations of the form: We must also discretize in time as well as space. Here we use a finite difference scheme:  is a weighting symbol. If  = 1, the method is termed “fully implicit”. When  = 0, the method is termed “explicit”. Rearrange to yield:

Collocation Galerkin FE Method: Boundary no-flux condition: In component form (Galerkin): Rearranging and coordinate transformations:
