چکیده

In 1984, H. Risken authored a book (H. Risken, The Fokker-Planck Equation: Methods of Solution, Applications, Springer-Verlag, Berlin, New York) discussing the Fokker-Planck equation for one variable, several variables, methods of solution and its applications, especially dealing with laser statistics. There has been a considerable progress on the topic as well as the topic has received greater clarity. For these reasons, it seems worthwhile again to summarize previous as well as recent developments, spread in literature, on the topic. The Fokker-Planck equation describes the evolution of conditional probability density for given initial states for a Markov process, which satisfies the Itô stochastic differential equation. The structure of the Fokker-Planck equation for the vector case is

Pseudo-spectral ‎M‎atrix and Normalized Grunwald Approximation for Numerical Solution of Time Fractional Fokker-Planck Equation

This paper presents a new numerical method to solve time fractional Fokker-Planck equation. The space dimension is discretized to the Gauss-Lobatto points, then we apply pseudo-spectral successive integration matrix for this dimension. This approach shows that with less number of points, we can approximate the solution with more accuracy. The numerical results of the examples are displayed.

Numerical Studies and Simulation of the Lower Hybrid Waves Current Drive by using Fokker – Planck Equation in NSST and HT-7 Tokamaks

Recent experiments on the spherical tokamak have discovered the conditions to create a powerful plasma and ensure easy shaping and amplification of stability, high bootstrap current and confinement energy. The spherical tours (ST) fusion energy development path is complementary to the tokamak burning plasma experiment such as NSTX and higher toroidal beta regimes and improves the design of a po...

Fokker–Planck approximation of the master equation in molecular biology

The master equation of chemical reactions is solved by first approximating it by the Fokker–Planck equation. Then this equation is discretized in the state space and time by a finite volume method. The difference between the solution of the master equation and the discretized Fokker–Planck equation is analyzed. The solution of the Fokker–Planck equation is compared to the solution of the master...

On the accuracy of the Fokker-Planck and Fermi pencil beam equations for charged particle transport.

Electron beam dose calculations are often based on pencil beam formulas such as the Fermi-Eyges formula. The Fermi-Eyges formula gives an exact solution of the Fermi equation. The Fermi equation can be derived from a more fundamental mathematical model, the linear Boltzmann equation, in two steps. First, the linear Boltzmann equation is approximated by the Fokker-Planck equation. Second, the Fo...
