About this model
====================
This is a Functional Cell Unit for excitation-contraction coupling in the cardiac cell.
This is a composite module, composed of several individual modules, and merged together in a modular fashion.
**INPUTS:**
- Stimulus current or action potential.
**OUTPUTS:**
- Change in number of myosin binding sites on cross-bridges.
Model status
=============
The current CellML implementation runs in OpenCOR.
Model overview
===================
All components are presented in `bond-graph` form.
Components are made by converting an existing kinetic model and translating into bond-graph form.

Components of the model.
A description of the process to find bond-graph parameter is shown in the folder `parameter_finder <parameter_finder>`_, which relies on the:
1. stoichiometry of system
2. kinetic constants for forward/reverse reactions
- If not already, all reactions are made reversible by assigning a small value to the reverse direction.
3. `linear algebra script <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/7a8/file/2488dd73970d607a0d5626a816930732637ec8b4/parameter_finder/find_BG_parameters_composite.py>`_.
Here, this solve process is performed in Python.
Modular description
===================
Components
----------
CellML divides the mathematical model into distinct components, which are able to be re-used in other composite models.
These CellML components are:
- `Sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic Ca2+ ATPase <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/7a5>`_ (SERCA)
- `Phospholamban regulation <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/6d1>`_ (PLB)
- `Ryanodine receptor <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/6e3>`_ (RyR)
- `L-type calcium channel <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/6d7>`_ (LCC)
- `Troponin-C <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/7a9>`_ (TnC)

Each of these blocks is itself a CellML model, complete with bond-graph parameters appropriate for the isolated system.
