Derivation of the bidomain equations for a beating heart with a general microstructure

A novel multiple scales method is formulated that can be applied to problems which have an almost periodic microstructure not in Cartesian coordinates but in a general curvilinear coordinate system. The method is applied to a model of the electrical activity of cardiac myocytes and used to derive a...
