A stochastic approach to colloidal particle collision/agglomeration

Abstract

Colloidal particles that experience perfectly elastic collisions can be modelled using Langevin processes with specular reflection conditions. The article presents a discretisation scheme and offers a conjecture for the rate of convergence of the bias produced. Numerically, these conjectures are confirmed for the specular reflection scheme but also for the absorption scheme, which models perfect agglomeration.
