A HYBRID MONTE-CARLO-DETERMINISTIC METHOD FOR AP1000 EX-CORE DETECTOR RESPONSE SIMULATION [PDF]
The ex-core detector-response calculation is a typical deep-penetration problem, which is challenging for the Monte Carlo method. The response of the ex-core detector is an important parameter for the safe operation of the nuclear power plants. Meanwhile,

Fluid simulations with localized boltzmann upscaling by direct simulation Monte-Carlo [PDF]
In the present work, we present a novel numerical algorithm to couple the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo method (DSMC) for the solution of the Boltzmann equation with a finite volume like method for the solution of the Euler equations. Recently we presented in [14],[16],[17] different methodologies which permit to solve fluid dynamics problems with ...
