Large-scale PDE-constrained optimization simulations are rapidly becoming an integral part of research in science and engineering. This talk presents a feasible study of optimal control techniques for cardiac defibrillation based on the bidomain equations posed on a rabbit ventricle geometry. The bidomain model consists of a system of elliptic partial differential equations coupled with a non-linear parabolic equation of reaction-diffusion type, where a set of ordinary differential equations describes the reaction term, modeling ionic transport.
