Modeling angiogenesis: A discrete to continuum description.
Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels develop from existing vasculature. During angiogenesis, endothelial tip cells migrate via diffusion and chemotaxis, loops form via tip-to-tip and tip-to-sprout anastomosis, new tip cells are produced via branching, and a vessel network forms as endothelial cells follow the paths of tip cells. The latter process is known as the snail trail. ...
متن کاملCoupled Hybrid Continuum-Discrete Model of Tumor Angiogenesis and Growth
The processes governing tumor growth and angiogenesis are codependent. To study the relationship between them, we proposed a coupled hybrid continuum-discrete model. In this model, tumor cells, their microenvironment (extracellular matrixes, matrix-degrading enzymes, and tumor angiogenic factors), and their network of blood vessels, described by a series of discrete points, were considered. The...
متن کاملNoise-induced multistability in chemical systems: Discrete versus continuum modeling.
The noisy dynamics of chemical systems is commonly studied using either the chemical master equation (CME) or the chemical Fokker-Planck equation (CFPE). The latter is a continuum approximation of the discrete CME approach. It has recently been shown that for a particular system, the CFPE captures noise-induced multistability predicted by the CME. This phenomenon involves the CME's marginal pro...
متن کاملMulti-physics Modeling Environment for Continuum and Discrete Dynamics
A model-development environment for simulation of discrete and continuum dynamics in complex 3D geometries is described. This environment is based on 3D libraries for manipulation of geometrical primitives, object-oriented multi-domain modeling paradigm, continuum solvers on unstructured meshes, discrete particle solvers, and a proprietary tool-assisted grid generation technique. The numerical ...
متن کاملNoise-induced multistability in chemical systems: Discrete vs Continuum modeling
The noisy dynamics of chemical systems is commonly studied using either the chemical master equation (CME) or the chemical Fokker-Planck equation (CFPE). The latter is a continuum approximation of the discrete CME approach. We here show that the CFPE may fail to capture the CME’s prediction of noise-induced multistability. In particular we find a simple chemical system for which the CME’s margi...
