Abstract

Abstract

In view of the intrinsic uncertainty of the debris cloud, a fully probabilistic framework of debris evolution is constructed. The breakup, evolution and collision of the debris cloud can be analyzed analytically, avoiding the problems of low computational efficiency and poor robustness of numerical methods.
- space debris cloud,
- density,
- evolution
