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…
An invariance property of diffusive random walks
Stephane Blanco, Fournier Richard
Starting from a simple animal-biology example, a general, somewhat counter-intuitive property of diffusion random walks is presented. It is shown that for any (non-homogeneous) pur…
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…
Implementation of the force term in half-range lattice Boltzmann models
Victor E. Ambrus, Victor Sofonea, Richard Fournier +1
In the frame of the Boltzmann equation, wall-bounded flows of rarefied gases require the implementation of boundary conditions at the kinetic level. Such boundary conditions induce…
