Modeling: E. Ranu. Modeling based on: Rattay, F, “Analysis of models for extracellular fiber stimulation,” IEEE Trans Biomed Eng., Jul;36(7):676-82, 1989. (mV/cm 2 ) Maps the change in potential on the nerve. A function of position relative to electrode. Shows the level depolarization and hyperpolarization. Any depolarization above threshold causes neurons to fire. Activating Function: Contact Distance
