FieldTimeDerivativesEquations (ORbit Extrapolation KIT 9.3 API)

```
public interface FieldTimeDerivativesEquations<T extends org.hipparchus.RealFieldElement<T>>
```
Interface summing up the contribution of several forces into orbit and mass derivatives.
The aim of this interface is to gather the contributions of various perturbing forces expressed as accelerations into one set of time-derivatives of Orbit plus one mass derivatives. It implements Gauss equations for different kind of parameters.

An implementation of this interface is automatically provided by integration-based propagators, which are either semi-analytical or numerical propagators.

- Method Detail
  - addKeplerContribution
```
void addKeplerContribution(double mu)
```
    Add the contribution of the Kepler evolution.
    Since the Kepler evolution is the most important, it should be added after all the other ones, in order to improve numerical accuracy.
    
    Parameters:
    
    mu - central body gravitational constant
  - addNonKeplerianAcceleration
```
void addNonKeplerianAcceleration(org.hipparchus.geometry.euclidean.threed.FieldVector3D<T> gamma)
```
    Add the contribution of an acceleration expressed in some inertial frame.
    
    Parameters:
    
    gamma - acceleration vector in the same inertial frame the spacecraft state is defined in (m/s²)
    
    Since:
    
    9.0
  - addMassDerivative
```
void addMassDerivative(T q)
```
    Add the contribution of the flow rate (dm/dt).
    
    Parameters:
    
    q - the flow rate, must be negative (dm/dt)
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if flow-rate is positive
