Detailed Description

Class to calculate various physiological properties from the results of a cardiac simulation.

It will calculate for a single cell: All the Action potential durations (at any percentage) Max. upstroke velocity for each AP Action potential amplitudes for each AP Peak & Resting membrane potentials for all AP Cycle lengths (time between onset of APs)

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CellProperties::CellProperties ( std::vector< double > &  rVoltage,
std::vector< double > &  rTime,
double  threshold = -30.0 
) [inline]

Constructor sets the data and calls CalculateProperties

Parameters:
&rVoltage a reference to the vector of voltages
&rTime a reference to the vector of times
threshold is the thershold for determining if an AP started, defaults to -30

std::vector< double > CellProperties::CalculateActionPotentialDurations ( const double  percentage  )  [private]

Actually calculate APD.

APD is taken to be the time from when the threshold is crossed to the time voltage reaches back to a value of RestingPotential+'percentage'*(amplitude-resting).

Parameters:
percentage The percentage of the amplitude to calculate for.
Returns:
a vector containing the APDs.

Todo:
#913 linear interpolation here too?

Throw an exception if we are asking for information which is not present, because upstroke was never detected (the voltage trace never exceeded the threshold voltage).
