A Batch Power Iteration Approach for the Iterative Quasi-Monte Carlo Method Using a Randomized-Halton Sequence
Samuel Pasmann, Ilham Variansyah, C. T. Kelley +1
The Iterative Quasi-Monte Carlo (iQMC) method is a recently developed hybrid method for neutron transport simulations. iQMC replaces standard quadrature techniques used in determin…
Randomized Quasi-Monte Carlo Sampling in The Random Ray Method for Neutron Transport Simulations
Samuel Pasmann, John Tramm
In a random ray method of neutral particle transport simulation, each iteration begins by sampling a set of rays before proceeding to solve the characteristic transport equation al…
