Diffusion approximation and computation of the critical size

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the spectral properties of the transport equation and how the diffusion approximation is related to the computation of the critical size, and they showed that when the transport operator is almost conservative, the critical value of the parameter 17 is large and it is exactly for this range of value that the diffusion approximation is accurate.

Multigrid Solutions to Elliptic Flow Problems

Achi Brandt, +1 more
TL;DR: Various concepts of ellipticity of finite-difference approximations to general elliptic partial differential systems are reviewed and introduced, and rules are given for the construction of stable schemes with high approximation orders, even for singular perturbation problems.

Invariant imbedding and mathematical physics--I: particle processes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derive new analytic formulations of the classical particle processes, those of transport theory, radiative transfer, random walk, multiple scattering, and diffusion theory, in addition, new computational algorithms which seem well fitted to the capabilities of digital computers.
