摘要
本文研究一个描述肿瘤生长的自由边界问题.这个自由边界问题是对Byrne和Chaplain相应肿瘤生长模型的一个改进,研究了该问题解当t→∞时的渐近状况,证明了未血管化的肿瘤体积不会无限制地增大,它或者趋于消失,或者趋于一个休眠态,依营养物浓度的大小和抑制物浓度的大小而定.
This paper studies a free boundary problem modelling avascular tumor growth. This free boundary problem is an improvement of the tumor growth model proposed by Byrne and Chaplain. The authors study the asymptotic behavior of the solution, and prove that in the case where c1 and c2 are sufficiently small, the volume of an avascular tumor cannot expand unlimitedly, and it will either disappear or evolve to a dormant state as t→∞.
