NUMERICAL TOOLS FOR NEW CELL BIOLOGICAL MODELING CAPABILITIES IN VCELL

这个子项目是利用资源的许多研究子项目之一。 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。对子项目的主要支持 子项目的首席调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括美国国立卫生研究院的其他来源。为子项目列出的总成本可能 表示该子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 不是由NCRR赠款提供给次级项目或次级项目工作人员的直接资金。 该项目的目标是在Vcell中实现用于模拟细胞现象的新功能。特别是，将实现解线性椭圆(泊松类型)方程的算法，这是对细胞生物力学和电生理学的影响进行建模所必需的。求反应扩散系统的稳态解也需要椭圆求解器。此外，还将实现其他新功能，如不同类型的边界条件、块求解器等。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. This project is aimed at implementing new capabilities within VCell for modeling cell phenomena. In particular, algorithms for solving linear elliptic (Poisson-type) equations will be implemented that are required for modeling effects of cell biomechanics and electrophysiology. Elliptic solvers are also required to find a steady-state solution of a reaction-diffusion system. In addition, other new capabilities, such as different types of boundary conditions, block solvers, etc., will be implemented.
