19. The idea of neglecting spiral deformation comes from Mikhailov, Davydov, and Zykov in studying the resonant drift of spiral under periodic modulation of the excitability of an excitable medium, were spiral waves are modeled by moving curves (see Sec. 6 in Ref. 14). The differences is that we start directly from the original partial differential equations and its spiral wave solution. Numerical results show that this approximation is good for resonantly drifting spiral wave that was dense and rigidly rotating.
