std::vector< double > PropagationPropertiesCalculator::CalculateAllConductionVelocities ( unsigned  globalNearNodeIndex,
unsigned  globalFarNodeIndex,
const double  euclideanDistance 
)

Calculate all the conduction velocities between two cells, i.e. the time taken for all APs to propagate from one to the other. It returns a vector containing all the conduction velocities for each of the APs that reached the two nodes (only the APs that reached both nodes). Throws exceptions if an AP never reached one of the nodes.

Parameters:
globalNearNodeIndexThe cell to measure from.
globalFarNodeIndexThe cell to measure to.
euclideanDistanceThe distance the AP travels between the cells, along the tissue.

Todo:
