Effect of small-world topology on wave propagation on networks of excitable elements

We study excitation waves on a Newman–Watts small-world network model of coupled excitable elements. Depending on the global coupling strength, we find differing resilience to the added long-range links and different mechanisms of propagation failure. For high coupling strengths, we show agreement b...
