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…
A boundary-based net-exchange Monte Carlo method for absorbing and scattering thick media
V. Eymet, R. Fournier, S. Blanco +1
A boundary-based net-exchange Monte Carlo method was introduced in [1] that allows to bypass the difficulties encountered by standard Monte Carlo algorithms in the limit of optical…
Path-tracing Monte Carlo Library for 3D Radiative Transfer in Highly Resolved Cloudy Atmospheres
Najda Villefranque, Fleur Couvreux, Richard Fournier +5
Interactions between clouds and radiation are at the root of many difficulties in numerically predicting future weather and climate and in retrieving the state of the atmosphere fr…
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…
