Abstrakt: Abstract.  The ADO method, an analytical version of the discrete-ordinates method, is used to solve several classical problems in the rarefied gas dynamics field. The complete development of the solution, which is analytical in terms of the spatial variable, is presented in a way, such that, a wide class of kinetic models are considered, in an unified approach. A series of numerical results are showed and different simulations are used in order to establish a general comparative analysis based on this consistent set of results provided by the same methodology.
