Revised methods for Adjoint Calculations
نویسنده
چکیده
A common class of shielding problems involves the calculation of biological dose rates from large distributed sources at localised positions. A typical example is that of calculating the dose at points around a transport cask. Sophisticated variance reduction methods must be used in Monte Carlo calculations to sample from the important parts of the source and to propagate particles towards the relatively small detector volumes.

Adjoint modeling for acoustic inversion.
The use of adjoint modeling for acoustic inversion is investigated. An adjoint model is derived from a linearized forward propagation model to propagate data-model misfit at the observation points back through the medium to the medium perturbations not being accounted for in the model. This adjoint model can be used to aid in inverting for these unaccounted medium perturbations. Adjoint methods...

We present a computationally efficient and accurate adjoint method for calculating coupled sensitivities of complex frequency-domain excitation and emission fluence to any underlying optical parameters in highly scattering media. The method is shown to be general and accurate. Novel vectorized implementations for finite element global matrix assembly and adjoint sensitivity calculations are sho...
متن کاملA Comparison between CIECAM97s and its Revised Colour Appearance Models for Apearance Attributes of Fabrics
: The CIECAM97s and its revision, as a colour appearance model, were applied for a series of fabrics with different colours and depths to explain their colour appearance coordinates in similar viewing conditions. The results show that due to some modifications which expand the scale, the modified model has improved capadilities in calculating chroma. Besides, the calculations were simpler for t...
متن کاملAdjoint-based deviational Monte Carlo methods for phonon transport calculations
In the field of linear transport, adjoint formulations exploit linearity to derive powerful reciprocity relations between a variety of quantities of interest. In this paper, we develop an adjoint formulation of the linearized Boltzmann transport equation for phonon transport. We use this formulation for accelerating deviational Monte Carlo simulations of complex, multiscale problems. Benefits i...
