This article is concerned with an analytical study of a nonlinear model for tumor growth within a cellular medium. The governing system is given by a multi-phase flow of cancer cells. The evolution of tumor growth occurs in the presence of proliferating and quiescent cells as well as waste and a nutrient. The tumor is modeled as a growing, time-dependent domain \(\Omega\) with boundary \(\partial\Omega\). The total density of cancerous cells is allowed to vary. The authors obtain global-in-time weak solutions for this tumor growth model. They explain that their approach makes use of ``penalization of the boundary behavior, diffusion, viscosity and pressure in the weak formulation as well as convergence and compactness arguments (...).
