Extrapolating tumor invasion margins for physiologically determined radiotherapy regions

TL;DR: A new formulation to estimate the invasion margin of a tumor by extrapolating low tumor densities in magnetic resonance images (MRIs) is proposed, based on the Fisher-Kolmogorov Equation that is been widely used to model the growth of brain tumors.

Foundations for high-order, conservative cut-cell methods: Stable discretizations on degenerate meshes

TL;DR: A completely new approach to solve cut-cell methods for unsteady flow problems, termed TEMO (truncation error matching and optimization), is taken, based on two simple and intuitive design principles that directly allow for the construction of stable 8th order discretization.
