I really don't know for sure! I think the problem is rooted in the function
that returns the new direction of the particle after it has collided with
the surface. I believe it is ignoring the effects of gravity.

Perhaps I'm going to recode everything from scratch, but in C, because
Matlab is a bit too slow, specially because I'm thinking in adding
interaction between particles, and that adds a lot of complexity to the
algorithm. However, I going to miss Matlab's matrices and vectors.

Merci pour votre commentaires!
