Cardiac tissue and the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction provide two notable examples of excitable media that support scroll waves, in which a filament core is the source of spiral waves of excitation. Here we consider a novel topological configuration i... Read More about Threaded Rings that Swim in Excitable Media.

Dynamics of linked filaments in excitable media (2019)
Journal Article
Maucher, F., & Sutcliffe, P. (2019). Dynamics of linked filaments in excitable media. Nonlinearity, 32(3), Article 942. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6544/aafbb3

In this paper we present the results of parallel numerical computations of the long-term dynamics of linked vortex filaments in a three-dimensional FitzHugh–Nagumo excitable medium. In particular, we study all torus links with no more than 12 crossin... Read More about Dynamics of linked filaments in excitable media.
