A method of description of single muscle fibre action potential by an analytical function V(t,r) (Q1086509)

The paper describes a new method of analytical description of single muscle fibre action potential suitable for computer simulation. The description introduced is a product of quadratic and Gaussian functions. The coefficients of the function are determined on the basis of dependences of SFAP parameters on electrode-to-fibre distance combined from the transformed results of electrophysiological experiments and modelling. The description is being used for computer simulation of motor unit action potential which results will be described in forthcoming papers.
