Abstract

A deterministic particle method for kinetic equation in several dimensions was presented by Motta and Wick some years ago. In the present paper, we formulate the method in general coordinates and apply this formulation to an elastic collision kernel. We show that the method preserves exactly the energy conservation property of the elastic kernel.
