We investigate a multiphase Cahn-Hilliard model for tumor growth with general source terms. The multiphase approach allows us to consider multiple cell types and multiple chemical species (oxygen and/or nutrients) that are consumed by the…
We consider a diffuse interface model of tumor growth proposed by A.~Hawkins-Daruud et al. This model consists of the Cahn-Hilliard equation for the tumor cell fraction $\varphi$ nonlinearly coupled with a reaction-diffusion equation for…
We study an initial-boundary value problem (IBVP) for a coupled Cahn-Hilliard-Hele-Shaw system that models tumor growth. For large initial data with finite energy, we prove global (local resp.) existence, uniqueness, higher order spatial…
This paper concerns a distributed optimal control problem for a tumor growth model of Cahn-Hilliard type including chemotaxis with possibly singular potentials, where the control and state variables are nonlinearly coupled. First, we…
In this survey article, a variety of systems modeling tumor growth are discussed. In accordance with the hallmarks of cancer, the described models incorporate the primary characteristics of cancer evolution. Specifically, we focus on…
In this paper, we solve explicitly and analyze rigorously inhomogeneous initial-boundary-value problems (IBVP) for several fourth-order variations of the traditional diffusion equation and the associated linearized Cahn-Hilliard (C-H) model…
A distributed optimal control problem for a phase field system which physical context is that of tumor growth is discussed. The system we are going to take into account consists of a Cahn-Hilliard equation for the phase variable (relative…
In this paper we consider two diffuse interface models for tumor growth coupling a Cahn-Hilliard type equation for the tumor phase parameter to a reaction-diffusion type equation for the nutrient. The models are distinguished by the…
We develop a unified framework for the design and analysis of high-order nonconforming virtual element methods for nonlinear fourth-order reaction--diffusion problems in two dimensions, with emphasis on clamped, Navier, and…
In this paper, we study an optimal control problem for a macroscopic mechanical tumour model based on the phase field approach. The model couples a Cahn--Hilliard type equation to a system of linear elasticity and a reaction-diffusion…
We present a numerical scheme for solving an inverse problem for parameter estimation in tumor growth models for glioblastomas, a form of aggressive primary brain tumor. The growth model is a reaction-diffusion partial differential equation…
We introduce a nonisothermal phase-field system of Caginalp type that describes tumor growth under hyperthermia. The model couples a possibly viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation, governing the evolution of the healthy and tumor phases, with an…
We consider a fully practical finite element approximation of a diffuse interface model for tumour growth that takes the form of a degenerate parabolic system. In addition to showing stability bounds for the approximation, we prove…
We study a stochastic phase-field model for tumor growth dynamics coupling a stochastic Cahn-Hilliard equation for the tumor phase parameter with a stochastic reaction-diffusion equation governing the nutrient proportion. We prove strong…
Mathematical modelling of tumor growth is one of the most useful and inexpensive approaches to determine and predict the stage, size and progression of tumors in realistic geometries. Moreover, these models has been used to get an insight…
We introduce here a new diffuse interface thermodynamically consistent non-isothermal model for tumor growth in presence of a nutrient in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$. In particular our system describes the growth of a tumor…
We study a distributed optimal control problem for a nonisothermal Caginalp-type phase-field model that describes tumour growth under thermal therapy. The PDE system couples a possibly viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation, governing the evolution…
This paper is concerned with a phase field system of Cahn-Hilliard type that is related to a tumor growth model and consists of three equations in terms of the variables order parameter, chemical potential and nutrient concentration. This…
Longitudinal tumour volume data from head-and-neck cancer patients show that tumours of comparable pre-treatment size and stage may respond very differently to the same radiotherapy fractionation protocol. Mathematical models are often…
In this article, we investigate both forward and backward problems for coupled systems of time-fractional diffusion equations, encompassing scenarios of strong coupling. For the forward problem, we establish the well-posedness of the…
