Their high computational efficiency comes at the cost of a complex implementation and a nonsymmetric master-slave discretization of the nonpenetration condition. Here we investigate an alternative symmetric and overconstrained segment-to-segment contact formulation that allows for a simple implementation based on standard multigrid and a symmetric treatment of contact boundaries, but leads to nonunique multipliers. For the solution of the arising quadratic programs, we propose augmented Lagrangian multigrid with overlapping block Gauss-Seidel smoothers. Approximation and convergence properties are studied numerically at standard test problems.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MuellerGoetschelWeiseretal.2017, author = {M{\"u}ller, Jan and G{\"o}tschel, Sebastian and Weiser, Martin and Maierhofer, Christiane}, title = {Thermografie mit optimierter Anregung f{\"u}r die quantitative Untersuchung von Delaminationen in kohlenstofffaserverst{\"a}rkten Kunststoffen}, booktitle = {NDT.net Proc.

This model consists of the Monodomain equations, a reaction-diffusion system modeling the cardiac bioelectrical activity, coupled with a quasi-static mechanical model describing the contraction and relaxation of the cardiac muscle. The numerical approximation of the cardiac electro-mechanical coupling is a challenging multiphysics problem, because it exhibits very different spatial and temporal scales. Therefore, spatio-temporal adaptivity is a promising approach to reduce the computational complexity. SDC methods are simple iterative methods for solving collocation systems. We exploit their flexibility for combining them in various ways with spatio-temporal adaptivity.

This combination of algebraic adaptivity and iterative solvers for higher order collocation time stepping realizes a multirate integration with minimal overhead.

Pathologically reduced conduction velocity facilitates arrhythmogenesis because such conduction velocities decrease the wavelength with which re-entry may occur. Computational studies on CV and how it changes regionally in models at spatial scales multiple times larger than actual cardiac cells exist. However, microscopic conduction within cells and between them have been studied less in simulations. In this work, we study the relation of microscopic conduction patterns and clinically observable macroscopic conduction using an extracellular-membrane-intracellular model which represents cardiac tissue with these subdomains at subcellular resolution. By considering cell arrangement and non-uniform gap junction distribution, it yields anisotropic excitation propagation. This novel kind of model can for example be used to understand how discontinuous conduction on the microscopic level affects fractionation of electrograms in healthy and fibrotic tissue. Along the membrane of a cell, we observed a continuously propagating activation wavefront. When transitioning from one cell to the neighbouring one, jumps in local activation times occurred, which led to lower global conduction velocities than locally within each cell.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WeiserChegini2022, author = {Weiser, Martin and Chegini, Fatemeh}, title = {Adaptive multirate integration of cardiac electrophysiology with spectral deferred correction methods}, booktitle = {CMBE22 - 7th International Conference on Computational \& Mathematical Biomedical Engineering}, pages = {528 -- 531}, year = {2022}, abstract = {The highly localized dynamics of cardiac electrophysiology models call for adaptive simulation methods.
