Reproducibility package for "A Strain-Coupled Boundary Extension of the Hodgkin-Huxley Equations: Sharp Onset and Axon-Initial-Segment Initiation"

This deposit contains the reproducibility materials for the manuscript “A Strain-Coupled Boundary Extension of the Hodgkin-Huxley Equations: Sharp Onset and Axon-Initial-Segment Initiation.” The manuscript develops a strain-coupled extension of the classical Hodgkin-Huxley equations. The model preserves the classical ionic current structure while introducing a boundary-derived strain proxy that asymmetrically modulates forward and backward gating transition rates. The numerical implementation uses a two-compartment soma and axon-initial-segment model to investigate sharp somatic spike onset and axon-initial-segment-first initiation. The archive includes simulation code, parameter-sweep output, and generated figures. The main sweep varies the strain-coupling parameters and records onset rapidity and relative soma/AIS initiation timing. The accompanying figures reproduce the robustness plots and diagnostic voltage/strain traces discussed in the manuscript.
