Cell Cycle Control and Bifurcation for a Free Boundary Problem Modeling Tissue Growth
We consider a free boundary problem for a system of partial differential equations, which arise in a model of cell cycle. For the quasi steady state system, it depends on a positive parameter β, which describes the signals from the microenvironment. Upon discretizing this model, we obtain a family of polynomial systems parameterized by β. We numerically find that there exists a radially-symmetr...
متن کاملComputing steady-state solutions for a free boundary problem modeling tumor growth by Stokes equation
We consider a free boundary problem modeling tumor growth where the model equations include a diffusion equation for the nutrient concentration and the Stokes equation for the proliferation of tumor cells. For any positive radius R, it is known that there exists a unique radially symmetric stationary solution. The proliferation rate μ and the cell-to-cell adhesiveness γ are two parameters for c...
متن کاملBifurcation from stability to instability for a free boundary problem arising in a tumor model, I
Mathematical models of tumor growth, which consider the tumor tissue as a density of proliferating cells, have been developed and studied in many papers; see [2,3,5–9,14,17–20] and the references given there. Most of the models discuss the case of radially symmetric tumors. Since tumors grown in vitro have a nearly spherical shape, it is important to determine whether radially symmetric tumors ...
متن کاملA Parabolic-hyperbolic Free Boundary Problem Modeling Tumor Growth with Drug Application
In this article, we study a free boundary problem modeling the growth of tumors with drug application. The model consists of two nonlinear second-order parabolic equations describing the diffusion of nutrient and drug concentration, and three nonlinear first-order hyperbolic equations describing the evolution of proliferative cells, quiescent cells and dead cells. We deal with the radially symm...
متن کاملA free boundary problem for a coupled system of elliptic, hyperbolic, and Stokes equations modeling tumor growth
We consider a tumor model with three populations of cells: proliferating, quiescent, and necrotic. Cells may change from one type to another at a rate which depends on the nutrient concentration. We assume that the tumor tissue is a fluid subject to the Stokes equation with sources determined by the proliferation rate of the proliferating cells. The boundary of the tumor is a free boundary held...
