Noble's 1998 improved guinea-pig ventricular cell model. It incorporates a diadic space, rapid and slow potassium currents and length and tension-dependent processes.
Description
In their 1998 paper, Denis Noble, Anthony Varghese, Peter Kohl and Penny Noble extended the guinea-pig ventricular cell model (originally developed in 1991 by Noble et al) to include accumulation and depletion of calcium in a diadic space between the sarcolemma and the sarcoplasmic reticulum, where the majority of calcium-induced calcium release is triggered. The model also includes rapid (i_Kr) and slow (i_Ks) components of the delayed rectifier current, and length- and tension-dependent changes in mechanical and electrophysiological processes have been incorporated. Drug-receptor interactions have also started to be modeled using the sodium channel as an example. The drugs used have the effect of blocking the inactivation h-gate of the fast sodium channel.

This model was downloaded from the CellML repository then translated by Erik Butterworth (CellML to JSim MML) on 28Nov05. We have added code at the top to define time, t and t. min and t. max in order to run the translation. It is otherwise exactly as derived from CellML website.
