Various numerical methods were proposed for analysis of the light scattering phenomenon. An important group of these methods is based on solving the volume integral equation describing the light scattering process. The popular method from this group is the discrete dipole approximation. Discrete dipole approximation uses various numerical algorithms to solve the discretized integral equation. In the recent years, the application of the Monte Carlo algorithm as one of them was proposed. In this research, we analyze the application of the Monte Carlo algorithm for two cases: the light scattering by large particles and by random conglomerates of small particles. We show that if proper preconditioning of the numerical problem is applied, the Monte Carlo algorithm can solve the underlying systems of linear equations. We also show that the efficiency of the Monte Carlo algorithm can be increased by reusing performed computations for various incident electromagnetic waves and the applicability of the Monte Carlo algorithm depends on the particular use case. It is unlikely to be used in the case of light scattering by the large particles due to computational times inferior comparing with the other numerical methods but may become useful in the case of light scattering by the random conglomerates of small scattering particles.

Classic Theory

In order to analysis the force situation of the material which is discontinuity,we can used the new theory called peridynamics to slove it.Peridynamics theory is a new method of molecular dynamics that develops very quickly.Peridynamics theory used the volume integral equation to constructed the model,used the volume integral equation to calculated the PD force in the horizon.So It doesn’t need to assumed the material’s continuity which must assumed that use partial differential equation to formulates the equation of motion. Destruction and the expend of crack which have been included in the peridynamics’ equation of motion.Do not need other additional conditions.In this paper,we introduce the peridynamics theory modeling method and introduce the relations between peridynamics and classic theory of mechanics.We also introduce the numerical integration method of peridynamics.Finally implementation the numerical integration in prototype microelastic brittle material.Through these work to show the advantage of peridynamics to analysis the force situation of the material.
