Variance Reduction in the Fokker-Planck Particle Method for Rarefied Gases using Quasi-Random Numbers

Lukas Netterdon, Veronica Montanaro, Manuel Torrilhon +1

The Fokker-Planck (FP) particle method accelerates rarefied-gas simulations by replacing the binary collisions of the commonly used Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method with…
