An Allen-Cahn tumor growth model with temperature
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new non-isothermal Allen-Cahn (Ginzburg-Landau) model for tumor growth. After deriving it using a microforces approach, we study its well-posedness. In particular, we are able to prove the existence and uniqueness of a local and global-in-time solution to our PDE system.
