โœฆ Synopsis


Stochastic particle methods for the numerical treatment of the Boltzmann equation for dilute monatomic gases are considered. One particular stochastic model of particles with weights is introduced. Recent convergence results for this model are discussed. The introduction of certain degrees of freedom seems to be helpful for the reduction of the random fluctuations of the particle scheme.

Different ideas for reducing the number of particles in the stochastic weighted particle method for the Boltzmann equation are described and discussed. The corresponding error bounds are obtained and numerical tests for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation presented. It is shown that if an a
