The presented paper investigates the effect of the formulation of the energy potential of a dynamical particle system used for the optimization of statistical point sampling. The dynamical particle system, originally developed as a physical analogy to the Audze - Eglajs (AE) optimization criterion and its periodical modification (PAE), effectively demonstrated that the originally proposed energy potential performs well only in poorly applicable scenarios featuring low - dimensional design domains filled with a rather high number of design points. A remedy is presented which involves a refined formulation of the energy potential, as well as its derivation. The reasoning behind this approach is also dealt with in detail.
