Abstract
We study numerically the evolution of a size-structured cell population model, with finite maximum individual size and minimum size for mitosis. We formulate two schemes for the numerical solution of such a model. The schemes are analysed and optimal rates of convergence are derived. Some numerical experiments are also reported to demonstrate the predicted accuracy of the schemes. We also consider the behaviour of the methods with respect to the different discontinuities that appear in the solution to the problem and the stable size distribution. In addition, the numerical schemes are used to study asynchronous exponential growth.
