The present work aims at investigating the ability of a Kinetic-Based Moment Method (KBMM) to reproduce the statistics of turbulent particle-laden flows using the Anisotropic Gaussian (AG) closure. This method is the simplest KBMM member that can account for Particle Trajectory Crossing (PTC) proper...
