Member Data Documentation

initialCondition

Vec3 found::OrbitParams::initialCondition

The initial position of the satellite with respect to Earth (at t = 0 and theta = 0)

inPlaneRotation

decimal(* found::OrbitParams::inPlaneRotation) (int theta)

The angular speed that the satellite's orbit plane rotates in plane at with respect to the number of revolutions in the satellite's orbit.

This is the same as the speed at which the major axis rotates around the barycenter of orbit in the plane of orbit, which is approximately at Earth's center

Parameters

theta

The number of revolutions the satellite has done

Returns

The angular speed at which the plane of orbit rotates at, in plane, after theta revolutions

majorAxis

Vec3(* found::OrbitParams::majorAxis) (int theta)

The major axis vector as a function with respect to the revolutions of the satellite.

Parameters

theta

The number of revolutions the satellite has done

Returns

The major axis vector after theta revolutions have taken place

minorAxis

Vec3(* found::OrbitParams::minorAxis) (int theta)

The minor axis vector as a function with respect to the revolutions of the satellite.

Parameters

theta

The number of revolutions the satellite has done

Returns

The minor axis vector after theta revolutions have taken place

outPlaneRotation

decimal(* found::OrbitParams::outPlaneRotation) (int theta)

The angular speed that the satellite's orbit plane rotates out of plane at with respect to the number of revolutions in the satellite's orbit.

This is the same as the angular speed at which the plane of orbit changes

Parameters

theta

The number of revolutions the satellite has done

Returns

The angular speed at which the orbital plane rotates at, out of plane, after theta revolutions

position

Vec3(* found::OrbitParams::position) (int theta)

The position of the satellite as a function of the number of revolutions it has done.

Parameters

theta

The number of revolutions the satellite has done

Returns

The position vector after theta revolutions have taken place
