A numerical method for cell dynamics: Kinetic equations with discontinuous coefficients
Résumé
The motivation of this work is the numerical treatment of the mitosis in biological models involving cell dynamics. More generally we study hyperbolic PDEs with flux transmission conditions at interfaces between subdomains where coefficients are discontinuous. A dedicated finite volume scheme with a limited high order enhancement is adapted to treat the discontinuities arising at interfaces. The validation of the method is done on 1D and 2D toy problems for which exact solutions are available, allowing us to do a thorough convergence study. A simulation on the original biological model illustrates the full potentialities of the scheme.
