EnglishA new approach for modelling the spatio-temporal evolution of tumors is presented. To test its validity, a very basic model is considered, which, in spite of its simplicity, is capable of generating a multiplicity of morphologies and growth and migration rates. From an in-vivo scenario of basic life processes, cancer cell proliferation is described as a competition for basic nutrients. The chosen mathematical treatment and simulation techniques permit a direct implementation of the local nonlinear couplings existing between the various cell populations and the free and bound nutrient concentration. A discussion of the results and proposed improvements and applications of the model is also presented.
