The propagation of spiral waves in three-dimensional excitable media with and without forcing is studied numerically, and it is shown that, when localized forcing is imposed in a cube located in the middle of the computational domain, the spiral wave preserves its integrity, although it exhibits a d

The dynamics of spiral waves under external modulation of excitability is studied experimentally in a light-sensitive convection-free Belousov-Zhabotinsky medium. When varying the intensity of applied illumination periodically, the experiments reveal strong dependence of the resulting trajectories o
It has been suggested that reentrant activity in three-dimensional cardiac muscle may be organized as a scroll wave rotating around a singularity line called the "lament. Experimental studies indicate that "laments are often concealed inside the ventricular wall and consequently, scroll waves do not
