The main numerical advantage of the FDE approach over the GME is that the FDE allows constructing the final solution in the long-time limit by a single integration, | The main numerical advantage of the FDE approach over the GME is that the FDE allows constructing the final solution in the long-time limit by a single integration, | ||

whereas the GME must be iterated in time. On the other hand, the FDE approach does not capture some of the (interesting) dynamical behaviour inherent in the GME approach. | whereas the GME must be iterated in time. | ||
The FDE approach can be used fruitfully to model transport in fusion plasmas, in finite-size systems. | |||
