An Upstream Finite Volume Scheme for a Bone Healing Model

This paper is devoted to the introduction of a numerical scheme for a bone healing model and simulation of skull fractures. The mathematical model describes the evolution of mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts, bone matrix and osteogenic growth factor. We propose a numerical scheme based on an impli...
