A physical model and a Monte Carlo estimate for the specific intensity spatial derivative, angular derivative and geometric sensitivity
Paule Lapeyre, Zili He, Stéphane Blanco +11
Starting from the radiative transfer equation and its usual boundary conditions, the objective of this work is to design Monte Carlo algorithms estimating the specific intensity sp…
Convergence issues in derivatives of Monte Carlo null-collision integral formulations: a solution
J-M Tregan, S. Blanco, J. Dauchet +5
When a Monte Carlo algorithm is used to evaluate a physical observable A, it is possible to slightly modify the algorithm so that it evaluates simultaneously A and the derivatives…
On the possibility of homogeneous nucleation of water droplets and/or ice crystals during the bounces of a cavitation bubble
Olivier Louisnard, Fabienne Espitalier
Acoustic cavitation is known to trigger ice nucleation in supercooled water. Several competing and still debatable mechanisms have been proposed in the literature and are related t…
Segregation of a liquid mixture by a radially oscillating bubble
Olivier Louisnard, Francisco Javier Gomez Romain Grossier
A theoretical formulation is proposed for forced mass transport by pressure gradients in a liquid binary mixture around a spherical bubble undergoing volume oscillations in a sound…
Implementing SCRUM to develop a connected robot
Diego Armando Diaz Vargas, Rui Xue, Claude Baron +4
Agile methods are receiving a growing interest from industry and these approaches are nowadays well accepted and deployed in software engineering. However, some issues remain to in…
Addressing the gas kinetics Boltzmann equation with branching-path statistics
Guillaume Terrée, Mouna El Hafi, Stéphane Blanco +3
This article proposes a new statistical numerical method to address gas kinetics problems obeying the Boltzmann equation. This method is inspired from some Monte-Carlo algorithms u…
Addressing nonlinearities in Monte Carlo
Jérémi Dauchet, Jean-Jacques Bezian, Stéphane Blanco +16
Monte Carlo is famous for accepting model extensions and model refinements up to infinite dimension. However, this powerful incremental design is based on a premise which has sever…
Optimal control of crystallization of alpha-lactose monohydrate
Amira Rachah, Dominikus Noll, Fabienne Espitalier +1
We present a mathematical model for solvated crystallization of alpha -lactose monohydrate in semi-batch mode. The process dynamics are governed by conservation laws including popu…
A simple model of ultrasound propagation in a cavitating liquid. Part II: Primary Bjerknes force and bubble structures
Olivier Louisnard
In a companion paper, a reduced model for propagation of acoustic waves in a cloud of inertial cavitation bubbles was proposed. The wave attenuation was calculated directly from th…
A simple model of ultrasound propagation in a cavitating liquid. Part I: Theory, nonlinear attenuation and traveling wave generation
Olivier Louisnard
The bubbles involved in sonochemistry and other applications of cavitation oscillate inertially. A correct estimation of the wave attenuation in such bubbly media requires a realis…
Analytical expressions for primary Bjerknes force on inertial cavitation bubbles
Olivier Louisnard
The primary Bjerknes force is responsible for the quick translational motion of radially oscillating bubbles in a sound field. The problem is classical in the case of small-amplitu…
