Asymptotic Preserving schemes for the linear transport

Participant : Luc Mieussens [Corresponding member] .

We have shown that the recent method “Unified Gas Kinetic Scheme”, proposed by K. Xu to simulated multiscale rarefied gas flows, can be extended to other fields, like radiative transfer. This approach, based on a simple finite volume technique, is very general and can be easily applied to complex geometries with unstructured meshes. This work has been presented in a paper submitted for publication.
