An in silico tool that can be utilized in the clinic to predict neoplastic progression and propose individualized treatment strategies is the holy grail of computational tumor modeling. Building such a tool requires the development and successful integration of a number of biophysical and mathematical models. In this paper, we work toward this long-term goal by formulating a cellular automaton model of tumor growth that accounts for several different inter-tumor processes and host-tumor interactions. In particular, the algorithm couples the remodeling of the microvasculature with the evolution of the tumor mass and considers the impact that organ-imposed physical confinement and environmental heterogeneity have on tumor size and shape. Furthermore, the algorithm is able to account for cell-level heterogeneity, allowing us to explore the likelihood that different advantageous and deleterious mutations survive in the tumor cell population. This computational tool we have built has a number of applications in its current form in both predicting tumor growth and predicting response to treatment. Moreover, the latent power of our algorithm is that it also suggests other tumor-related processes that need to be accounted for and calls for the conduction of new experiments to validate the model’s predictions.

Understanding the transport properties of a porous medium from a knowledge of its microstructure is a problem of great interest in the physical, chemical, and biological sciences. Using a first-passage time method, we compute the mean survival time τ of a Brownian particle among perfectly absorbing traps for a wide class of triply periodic porous media, including minimal surfaces. We find that the porous medium with an interface that is the Schwartz P minimal surface maximizes the mean survival time among this class. This adds to the growing evidence of the multifunctional optimality of this bicontinuous porous medium. We conjecture that the mean survival time (like the fluid permeability) is maximized for triply periodic porous media with a simply connected pore space at porosity ϕ=1/2 by the structure that globally optimizes the specific surface. We also compute pore-size statistics of the model microstructures in order to ascertain the validity of a “universal curve” for the mean survival time for these porous media. This represents the first nontrivial statistical characterization of triply periodic minimal surfaces.

We show that under tension a classical many-body system with only isotropic pair interactions in a crystalline state can, counterintuitively, have a negative Poisson’s ratio, or auxetic behavior. We derive the conditions under which the triangular lattice in two dimensions and lattices with cubic symmetry in three dimensions exhibit a negative Poisson’s ratio. In the former case, the simple Lennard-Jones potential can give rise to auxetic behavior. In the latter case, a negative Poisson’s ratio can be exhibited even when the material is constrained to be elastically isotropic.

We show that classical many-particle systems interacting with certain soft pair interactions in two dimensions exhibit novel low-temperature behaviors. Ground states span from disordered to crystalline. At some densities, a large fraction of normal-mode frequencies vanish. Lattice ground-state configurations have more vanishing frequencies than disordered ground states at the same density and exhibit vanishing shear moduli. For the melting transition from a crystal, the thermal expansion coefficient is negative. These unusual results are attributed to the topography of the energy landscape.
