- In this paper, we consider an age-structured mechanical model for tumor growth. This model takes into account the life-cycle of tumor cells by including an age variable. The underlying process for tumor growth is the same as classical tumor models, where growth is driven by pressure-limited cell proliferation, and cell movement away from regions of high pressure. The main contribution of this paper is establishing the convergence of solutions of the age-structured model to a limit satisfying a Hele-Shaw free boundary problem. This limiting problem describes the geometric motion of the tumor as it grows according to a nonlinear Darcy's law.
