In a recent paper ( http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jqsrt.2013.11.002 ) Liu et al.
proposed an extension of the DDA to the partly coherent incident beam. It is
just standard DDA results averaged over many instances of a stochastic (random)
incident field.
The easiest is to implement this feature by a wrap-around script, which will
supply the instances of random field, run ADDA, and then post-process (average)
the results. Alternatively, this can be integrated inside ADDA using some of
the machinery of the orientation averaging.
An interesting research question is whether this can be done more efficiently.
But probably that is possible only throught the inverse of the interaction
matrix. In this respect the dilemma is similar to thermal DDA - issue 191.
