A STUDY ON CANCER CELL INVASION WITH A THREE-DIMENSIONAL DYNAMIC MULTI-PHYSICS MODEL

3차원 동적 다중물리 모델 기반 암세포 증식과정 예측기술 개발

This paper proposes a three-dimensional haptotaxis model to simulate the migration of the population of cancer cells. The invasion of the cancer cells relates with the hapto- and the effect of the energy between cells and (ECM). The diffuse interface model is employed, which incorporates haptotaxis mechanism and interface energies. The semi-implicit Fourier spectral scheme is adopted for efficient complications. The simulation results reveal rich dynamics of cancer cells migration.
