A fractional diffusion equation model for cancer tumor

Abstract: In this article, we consider cancer tumor models and investigate the need for fractional order derivative as compared to the classical first order derivative in time. Three different cases of the net killing rate are taken into account including the case where net killing rate of the cancer cells is dependent on the concentration of the cells. At first, we use a relatively new analytical technique called q-Homotopy Analysis Method on the resulting time-fractional partial differential equations to obtain analyt… Show more

“…Therefore, many analytical methods have been put to use successfully to obtain solutions of classical gas dynamics equations such as Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) [15], Variational Iteration Method (VIM) [13], Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) [1], [15] and the timefractional type was considered using differential transform method (DTM) in [3]. Recently, a modified HAM called q-Homotopy Analysis Method was introduced in [4], see also [6], [8], [9], [10]. It was proven that the presence of fraction factor in this method enables a fast convergence compared to the usual HAM.…”

“…describes the so called Levy flights that correspond to the continuous time random walk model, where both the mean waiting time and the jump length variance of the diffusing Particles are divergent (Luchko, 2016). Time fractional diffusion equations in the Caputo sense with initial conditions are used to model cancer tumor (Iyiola and Zaman, 2014). Nonlinear diffusion equations play a great role to describe the density dynamics in a material undergoing diffusion in a dynamic system which includes different branches of science and technology.…”
