Abstract

In this work we consider the discretization of a recently formulated (Collis et al., [22]) multiscale model for drug- and nutrient-limited tumour growth. The key contribution of this work is the proposal of a discontinuous Galerkin finite element scheme which incorporates a non-standard coupling across a singular surface, and the presentation of full details of a suitable discretization for the coupled flow and transport systems, such as that arising in Collis et al. [22] and other similar works. We demonstrate the application of the proposed discretizations via representative numerical experiments; furthermore, we present a short numerical study of convergence for the proposed microscale scheme, in which we observe optimal rates of convergence for sufficiently smooth data.
