报告题目:A statistical physics approach for radiative transfer in complex medium
报告摘要:Direct numerical simulation approaches such as three-dimensional (3D) Monte Carlo methods, have been widely used to study transport problems in complex medium when the detailed 3D structure of the medium is known. For applications like climate modeling and satellite remote sensing, such knowledge is often absent or at best available in a statistical sense. Using a statistical-physics-like approach, called direct statistical simulation here, I develop a simple one-dimensional transport theory for complex 3D medium whose solution is the mean radiation itself. The heart of the theory is using a spatial correlation function to encode information about the unresolved spatial variability and structure of the medium. We show that the new theory, with several orders less computational cost, is able to faithfully describe sub-pixel radiation-medium interactions and reproduce the results of expensive 3D simulations. It is thus offers a plausible way to physically account for sub-pixel heterogeneity in remote sensing applications.
