Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative phase-field modeling of dendritic growth in two and three dimensions
Alain Karma,Wouter-Jan Rappel +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results of quantitative phase-field simulations of the dendritic crystallization of a pure melt in two and three dimensions were reported, and they were used to test the accuracy of phase field computations performed within the thin interface limit of the phase field model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation by the Ablation of Localized Sources: CONFIRM (Conventional Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation With or Without Focal Impulse and Rotor Modulation) Trial
Sanjiv M. Narayan,David E. Krummen,David E. Krummen,Kalyanam Shivkumar,Paul Clopton,Wouter-Jan Rappel,John M. Miller +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed that human atrial fibrillation (AF) may be sustained by localized sources (electrical rotors and focal impulses), whose elimination (focal impulse and rotor modulation [FIRM]) may improve outcome from AF ablation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phase-field method for computationally efficient modeling of solidification with arbitrary interface kinetics
Alain Karma,Wouter-Jan Rappel +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the phase-field method for modeling the solidification of a pure material is used to resolve a smaller capillary length to interface thickness ratio and thus render smaller undercooling and three-dimensional computations accessible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-organization in systems of self-propelled particles.
TL;DR: A continuum version of the discrete model consisting of self-propelled particles that obey simple interaction rules is developed and it is demonstrated that the agreement between the discrete and the continuum model is excellent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical Mapping Approach To Diagnose Electrical Rotors and Focal Impulse Sources for Human Atrial Fibrillation
TL;DR: A clinical computational mapping approach is developed, guided by human atrial tissue physiology, to reveal sources of human AF.
