Monte Carlo Method is used to simulate a double layer gadolinium-amorphous silicon thermal neutron detector. The detector fabricated in pixel array configuration has various applications including neutron imaging. According to the simulation results, a detector consisting of a gadolinium (Gd) film with thickness of 2-4 ~m, sandwiched properly with two layers of sufficiently thick (-30 ?µm) hydr...

We present a novel real-time method for simulating aeolian sand transport and dune propagation. Our is GPU-based extension of the Desertscapes Simulation propagation model to additionally capture echo dunes obstacle interaction. validate our by comparing it against an existing study evolution in wind tunnel environment. Additionally, we demonstrate significantly improved performance via compari...

On-line simulations play a critical role in understanding, supervising, and controlling large-scale systems. For instance, in military training applications, users are presented with complex scenarios that consist of both actual and simulated devices interacting in real-time. Troubleshooting of complex telephone networks may utilize on-line simulations to play`what if' games when evaluating alt...
