This is a
simulation of tumour cord growth, where cells suffer from hypoxia (energy deficit shown with colour). The tumour grows along the blood vessel (coincides with
x-axis). Red line shows the position of the tumour–host interface.
This particular simulation was programmed in
FreeFEM++ out of curiousity. The source code for simulation may be found at
http://code.google.com/p/cord.
This video reflects work in progress and may be different from the final results.
