Constructor Detail

AbstractDragForceModel

protected AbstractDragForceModel(Atmosphere atmosphere)

Constructor.

Parameters:

atmosphere - atmospheric model

Method Detail

dependsOnPositionOnly

public boolean dependsOnPositionOnly()

Check if force models depends on position only.

Specified by:

dependsOnPositionOnly in interface ForceModel

Returns:

true if force model depends on position only, false if it depends on velocity, either directly or due to a dependency on attitude

isDSStateDerivative

protected <T extends org.hipparchus.CalculusFieldElement<T>> boolean isDSStateDerivative(FieldSpacecraftState<T> state)

Check if a field state corresponds to derivatives with respect to state.

Type Parameters:

T - type of the field elements

Parameters:

state - state to check

Returns:

true if state corresponds to derivatives with respect to state

isGradientStateDerivative

protected <T extends org.hipparchus.CalculusFieldElement<T>> boolean isGradientStateDerivative(FieldSpacecraftState<T> state)

Check if a field state corresponds to derivatives with respect to state.

Type Parameters:

T - type of the field elements

Parameters:

state - state to check

Returns:

true if state corresponds to derivatives with respect to state

isVariable

protected boolean isVariable(org.hipparchus.analysis.differentiation.DerivativeStructure ds,
                             int index)

Check if a derivative represents a specified variable.

Parameters:

ds - derivative to check

index - index of the variable

Returns:

true if the derivative represents a specified variable

isVariable

protected boolean isVariable(org.hipparchus.analysis.differentiation.Gradient g,
                             int index)

Check if a derivative represents a specified variable.

Parameters:

g - derivative to check

index - index of the variable

Returns:

true if the derivative represents a specified variable

getDSDensityWrtStateUsingFiniteDifferences

                                                                                                                 Frame frame,
                                                                                                                 org.hipparchus.geometry.euclidean.threed.FieldVector3D<org.hipparchus.analysis.differentiation.DerivativeStructure> position)

Compute density and its derivatives. Using finite differences for the derivatives. And doing the actual computation only for the derivatives with respect to position (others are set to 0.).

From a theoretical point of view, this method computes the same values as Atmosphere.getDensity(FieldAbsoluteDate, FieldVector3D, Frame) in the specific case of DerivativeStructure with respect to state, so it is less general. However, it is *much* faster in this important case.

The derivatives should be computed with respect to position. The input parameters already take into account the free parameters (6, 7 or 8 depending on derivation with respect to drag coefficient and lift ratio being considered or not) and order (always 1). Free parameters at indices 0, 1 and 2 correspond to derivatives with respect to position. Free parameters at indices 3, 4 and 5 correspond to derivatives with respect to velocity (these derivatives will remain zero as the atmospheric density does not depend on velocity). Free parameter at indexes 6 and 7 (if present) corresponds to derivatives with respect to drag coefficient and/or lift ratio (one of these or both). This 2 last derivatives will remain zero as atmospheric density does not depend on them.

Parameters:

date - current date

frame - inertial reference frame for state (both orbit and attitude)

position - position of spacecraft in inertial frame

Returns:

the density and its derivatives
