Numerical Analysis of the Coupled Modified van der Pol Equations in a Model of Heart Action

In this paper, a modified van der Pol equations are considered as a description of the heart action. Wide ranges of the model parameters yield interesting qualitative results, e.g. Hopf bifurcation, Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation, transcritical and pitchfork bifurcations but also some stable solutions...
