Variance reduction for Monte Carlo solutions of the Boltzmann equation
We show that by considering only the deviation from equilibrium, significant computational savings can be obtained in Monte Carlo evaluations of the Boltzmann collision integral for flow problems in the small Mach number sMad limit. The benefits of this variance reduction approach include a significantly reduced statistical uncertainty when the deviation from equilibrium is small, and a flow-ve...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Methods for the Linearized Poisson-Boltzmann Equation
We review efficient grid-free random walk methods for solving boundary value problems for the linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation (LPBE). First we introduce the “Walk On Spheres” (WOS) algorithm [1] for the LPBE. Based on this WOS algorithm, another, related, Monte Carlo algorithm is presented. This modified Monte Carlo method reinterprets the weights used in the original WOS algorithm as sur...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Methods for Solving the Boltzmann Transport Equation
We review Monte Carlo methods for solving the Boltzmann equation for applications to small-scale transport processes, with particular emphasis on nanoscale heat transport as mediated by phonons. Our discussion reviews the numerical foundations of Monte Carlo algorithms, basic simulation methodology, as well as recent developments in the field. Examples of the latter include formulations for cal...
متن کاملAn asymptotic-preserving Monte Carlo method for the Boltzmann equation
In this work, we propose an asymptotic-preserving Monte Carlo method for the Boltzmann equation that is more efficient than the currently available Monte Carlo methods in the fluid dynamic regime. This method is based on the successive penalty method [25], which is an improved BGK-penalization method originally proposed by Filbet-Jin [9]. Here we propose the Monte-Carlo implementation of the me...
متن کاملDeviational particle Monte Carlo for the Boltzmann equation
The paper describes the deviational particle Monte Carlo method for the Boltzmann equation. The approach is an application of the general “control variates” variance reduction technique to the problem of solving a nonlinear equation. The deviation of the solution from a reference Maxwellian is approximated by a system of positive and negative particles. Previous results from the literature are ...
