Integral transport methods. The integral transport methods construct an expression for the angular flux at a given location by integrating over all external and scattering sources that could contribute, taking in account the probability of the source neutral reaching the given location without a collision. The collision probability method result from partitioning the domain of the problem into a large number of finite size regions and formulating the equation to calculate the average value of the neutral flux in each region. Like the Monte Carlo method, the result of collision probability method can be very accurate. This method has been successfully implemented for neutral propagating in 3D rectangular grids. Since the collision probability method is based on a global particle balance, the neutral flux at a given region is coupled to the neutral scalar flux of any other regions via collision probabilities which must be calculated by multi-dimensional numerical integration involving expensive evaluation of Bickley functions.  3, fiche 3, Anglais, - collision%20probability%20method

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT

... it is quite natural to look at GSPD as a fractal measure ... with infinitely many types of singularities. Probing the surface with many random walks is equivalent to the estimation of the corresponding solutions of Laplace’s equation ... which are usually called harmonic functions. Consequently, the name harmonic measure is also used for GSPD.  2, fiche 4, Anglais, - harmonic%20function

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS

To calculate the harmonic measure and its characteristic properties one can follow two numerical methods. i) After having generated a DLA cluster one releases further particles... whose diffusional motion is simulated by the same technique... which is used for growing the aggregate. These probe particles, however, are eliminated when they arrive at the surface, and a record is kept of how many times each of the surface sites is contacted in this way. The normalized number of contacts is then regarded as the growth probability.  2, fiche 4, Anglais, - harmonic%20function
