Abstract

Spiral waves are spatiotemporal patterns, observed in complex networks of biological oscillators such as heart and brain. In this paper, at first a modified Hindmarsh–Rose model with external electromagnetic radiation and discontinuous exponential flux coupling is introduced. Then a 2-dimensional network of the proposed model is constructed. The spatiotemporal patterns of the network are investigated in two different cases of periodic and quasi-periodic external magnetic excitations, by varying the external force parameters. As a consequence, the effective factors on the formation and elimination of spiral waves are reported.
