Fig. 4
Representation of the models for myelinated and unmyelinated axons. Parameters for the model were sourced from literature and experimental studies. Lengths of all axons were maintained equal for each individual simulation. The sections corresponding to the soma and nodes were incorporated with active channels to enable the elicitation of action potentials. The internodes only contained passive channels and had their membrane properties adjusted corresponding to the extent of myelination.
