This implies that the computational mesh has to have a typical resolution of a few {\textmu}m leading to huge computational challenges. In this paper we use a certain operator splitting of the coupled equations and showthat this leads to systems that can be solved in parallel. This opens up for the possibility of simulating large numbers of coupled cardiac cells.}, year = {2021}, journal = {Modeling Excitable Tissue: The EMI Framework}, volume = {7}, chapter = {4}, pages = {44 - 55}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, address = {Cham}, issn = {2512-1677}, isbn = {978-3-030-61156-9}, url = {http://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/978-3-030-61157-6_4}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-61157-6_4}, editor = {Aslak Tveito and Kent-Andre Mardal and Marie Rognes}, }
