Detailed Description

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM = ELEMENT_DIM>
class AbstractCardiacCellFactory< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >

A factory to ease creating cardiac cell objects for use in a mono/bidomain simulation.

The user should implement their own concrete class, in particular implementing CreateCardiacCellForTissueNode(unsigned), which should return the cell corresponding to a given node. The user should also implement GetNumberOfCells() if this isn't equal to the number of nodes. FinaliseCellCreation() can be used to (eg) add stimuli to certain cells after they have been created.

This class saves the user having to create cells in parallel, that work is done by the pde instead.

AbstractCardiacCellFactory< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::AbstractCardiacCellFactory ( boost::shared_ptr< AbstractIvpOdeSolver pSolver = boost::shared_ptr<AbstractIvpOdeSolver>(new EulerIvpOdeSolver))

Default constructor.

Parameters:
pSolverthe ODE solver to use to simulate this cell.

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
AbstractCardiacCellFactory< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::~AbstractCardiacCellFactory ( ) [virtual]

Destructor: free solver, zero stimulus and fake bath cell.

Member Function Documentation

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
AbstractCardiacCellInterface * AbstractCardiacCellFactory< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CreateCardiacCellForNode ( unsigned  nodeIndex) [virtual]

Create a cell object for the given node.

The default implementation checks whether the node is in the bath (in which case a pointer to a (unique) fake cell is returned) and if not, calls CreateCardiacCellForTissueNode (which must be defined by subclasses).

Parameters:
nodeIndexGlobal node index.

virtual AbstractCardiacCellInterface* AbstractCardiacCellFactory< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CreateCardiacCellForTissueNode ( unsigned  nodeIndex) [pure virtual]

Member Data Documentation

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM = ELEMENT_DIM>
HeartGeometryInformation<SPACE_DIM>* AbstractCardiacCellFactory< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::mpHeartGeometryInformation [private]

A pointer to an HeartGeometryInformation information object Can be accessed via get and set methods in this class.

Definition at line 75 of file AbstractCardiacCellFactory.hpp.

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM = ELEMENT_DIM>
AbstractTetrahedralMesh<ELEMENT_DIM,SPACE_DIM>* AbstractCardiacCellFactory< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::mpMesh [private]

The mesh is automatically set in MonodomainProblem and BidomainProblem. This member variable should be accessed through GetMesh(), which will check if it has been set before and throw an exception otherwise.
