Beeler-Reuter Ventricular Model, 1977

The model is used to simulate mammalian ventricular action potentials. It formulates ionic current gating in terms of Hodgkin-Huxley type equations. This model describes four ionic currents: fast inward sodium current, slow (calcium-carried) inward current, time-dependent outward potassium current, and time-independent (predominantly potassium) outward current. This model includes basic intracellular calcium concentration handling.
