| Abstract: | Two kinds of chaos can occur in cardiac tissue, chaotic meander of a single intact spiral wave and chaotic spiral wave breakup. We studied these behaviors in a model of two-dimensional cardiac tissue based on the Luo-Rudy I action potential model. In the chaotic meander regime, chaos is spatially localized to the core of the spiral wave. When persistent spiral wave breakup occurs, there is a transition from local to global spatiotemporal chaos. |
