A numerical analysis of a model of growth tumor
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we study a free boundary problem modeling the growth of tumors. The model uses the conventional ideas of nutrient diffusion and consumption by the cells. We consider the radially symmetric case of this free boundary problem. We apply a spectral numerical method to the system of equations. 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Two Dimensional Mathematical Model of Tumor Angiogenesis: Coupling of Avascular Growth and Vascularization
Introduction As a tumor grows, the demand for oxygen and nutrients increases and it grows further if acquires the ability to induce angiogenesis. In this study, we aimed to present a two-dimensional continuous mathematical model for avascular tumor growth, coupled with a discrete model of angiogenesis. Materials and Methods In the avascular growth model, tumor is considered as a single mass, wh...
متن کاملAn Agent- based Modeling for Breast Tissue Simulation and the Growth and Spread of Tumor in Various Breast Cancer States
Introduction: Breast cancer is a cancer that is caused by abnormal growth of breast cells. Modeling and simulation of the growth and treatment of breast cancer, along with providing the possibility of doing experiments and research, can reduce the time and cost of treatment by predicting some cases. The purpose of the present research was to develop an agent-based model for the simulation of b...
