# Simple carputils Example

See code in GitLab.

This is a simple monodomain example that is primarily a demonstration of the carputils framework. It includes all typical building blocks of a cardiac electrophysiology experiment starting from mesh generation / loading, stimulus definition, conductivity and ionic model definition and launching the simulation. Finally, local activation times are determined as a postprocessing step and the results are visualized using meshalzyer. As such, this script can be a good starting point to build your own experiment using carputils.

This webpage only shows the basic documentation, to use it as a starting point for building your own experiment, you should look at the Python code of this experiment.

For detailed information on the different functions and parameters, consult the carputils documentation.

## Problem Setup

This example defines a small cuboid on the domain:

$-1.0 \leq x \leq 1.0$$-0.25 \leq y \leq 0.25$$-0.25 \leq z \leq 0.25$

And applies an electrical stimulus on the $$x = -1.0$$ face.

## Usage

This example specifies just one optional argument, --tend. Use it to specify how long to simulate for after stimulus, in milliseconds:

./run.py --tend 100

As with other examples, add the --visualize option to automatically load the results in meshalyzer:

./run.py --tend 100 --visualize
