Abstract

An isotropic Pasternak-Like model is considered to elaborate the behavior of electric potential of neural tissue when immersed within elastic medium. Special attention is paid to the non dimensionlization of the parameters of the surrounding elastic medium. We found that shear layer potential per unit area and is the Winkler foundation-like constant, are two constants of Pasternak-like model and they actually effect on the potential of neural tissue. It is found that elastic medium affects the potential behavior of neural tissue. Elastic medium effect on the potential behavior of neural tissue is due to the Pasternak foundation parameters. Therefore the surrounding medium affects the potential of neural tissue during its transportation of functioning.

Key Words
