DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-11355-1
Abstract: Some cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular drugs frequently cause excessive prolongation of the cardiac action potential (AP) and lead to the development of early afterdepolarisations (EADs), which trigger lethal ventricular arrhythmias. Combining computer simulations in APs with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/5.0023472
Abstract: This Letter introduces a strategy for transition wave (soliton) management in multi-stable mechanical metamaterials, enabling on-demand, post-fabrication control of the associated phase transformation kinetics and distribution. Specifically, the wave dynamics are controlled by a small,… read more here.
