A new class of efficient stochastic algorithms for the numerical treatment of coagulation processes is proposed. The algorithms are based on the introduction of fictitious jumps combined with an acceptance-rejection technique for distributions depending on particle size. The increased efficiency is demonstrated by numerical experiments. In particular, gelation phenomena are studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
