1. Spiral wave initiation due to a FPR in a 2D medium.
Spiral wave initiation due to a FPR in a 2D medium. Within the domain with a dense filling, D=D0=0.001 cm2/ms. Within the domain with rare filling, D=D0/5. Within the rest of the medium, D=D0/20. Snapshots of an initially right-traveling wave are shown. (A–F) The trajectory of the created phase-change point is shown by a white line. The domain has a size 3×3 cm2, The FPR radius is 0.5 cm, and the parameter τd=0.40.
