Pseudospectral solutions of reaction-diffusion equations that model excitable media : convergence of solutions and applications
In this thesis, I develop accurate and efficient pseudospectral methods to solve Fisher's, the Fitzhugh-Nagumo and the Beeler-Reuter equations. Based on these methods, I present a study of spiral waves and their interaction with a boundary. The solutions of Fisher's equation are characteri...
