Multidimensional extension of the continuity equation method for debris clouds evolution

As the debris spatial density increases due to recent collisions and inoperative spacecraft, the probability of collisions in space grows. Even a collision involving small objects may produce thousands of fragments due to the high orbital velocity and the high energy released. The propagation of the...
