The snapping out Brownian motion
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a probabilistic representation of a one-dimensional diffusion, equation where the solution is discontinuous at 0 with a jump proportional to its flux. This kind of interface condition is usually seen as a semi-permeable barrier. For this, we use a process called here the snapping out Brownian motion, whose properties are studied. As this construction is motivated by applications, for example in brain imaging or in chemistry, a simulation scheme is also provided.

A Monte Carlo estimation of the mean residence time in cells surrounded by thin layers
We present a new Monte Carlo method to estimate the mean-residence time of a diffusive particle in a domain surrounded by a thin layer of low diffusivity. Through a homogenization technique, the layer is identified with a membrane. The simulations use a stochastic process called the snapping out Brownian motion whose density matches the suitable transmission conditions at the membrane. We provi...

This article deals with the study of the two-dimensional mixed convection magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer of stagnation-point flow over a stretching vertical plate in porous medium filled with a nanofluid. The model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis in the presence of thermal radiation. The skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number an...
