The role of cell-cell interactions in a two-phase model for avascular tumour growth.

A two-phase model is presented to describe avascular tumour growth. Conservation of mass equations, including oxygen-dependent cell growth and death terms, are coupled with equations of momentum conservation. The cellular phase behaves as a viscous liquid, while the viscosity of the extracellular wa...
