Abstract: | In this article, we study the fully non-stationary version of a mathematical model for tumour growth under indirect effect of inhibitor with time delay in proliferation. The quasi-stationary version has been studied by our previous work [S. Xu and Z. Feng, Analysis of a mathematical model for tumour growth under indirect effect of inhibitors with time delay in proliferation, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 374 (2011), pp. 178–186]. The existence and uniqueness of a global solution are proved and the asymptotic behaviour of the solution is studied. The results show that the dynamical behaviour of solutions of the fully non-stationary and the quasi-stationary version are similar under some conditions. |
