A Mathematical Model Describing Cellular Division with a Proliferating Phase Duration Depending on the Maturity of Cells
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we investigate a linear population model of cells that are capable of simultaneous proliferation and maturation. We consider the case when the time required for a cell to divide depends on its maturity. This model is described by first order partial differential system with a retardation of the maturation variable and a time delay depending on this maturity. Both delays are due to cell replication.

متن کاملTwo 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 کاملDesign of Manufacturing Cells with Two- Phase Model and A Heuristic Algorithm
A Two-phase model for configuring a cellular manufacturing system is proposed. In phase (I), for the first time, number of cells is considered as a decision variable. In phase (II), pursing two different objectives, one minimization of underload and the other, maximization of similarity of parts within a group, the design procedure is performed. As one cannot have these two objects together, a ...

متن کاملMathematical Modeling for Homogeneous Tumor with Delay in Time
Due to the properties of tumor cell, the tumor establishes itself in the organ and grows there, so there is a competition between the tumor cells and host cell (normal cells) for nutrients. Evidences show that high dietary phosphorus increases the rate of protein synthesis and thus the cell number. So, other than oxygen, sulfur, the important element that both tumor cells and normal cells need ...
