    FieldEventDetector<T>

    public class FieldImpulseManeuver<T extends CalculusFieldElement<T>>
    extends Object
    implements FieldEventDetector<T>
    Impulse maneuver model for propagators working with Fields.

    This class implements an impulse maneuver as a discrete event that can be provided to any Propagator and mirrors the standard version ImpulseManeuver.

    The maneuver is executed when an underlying is triggered, in which case this class will generate a RESET_STATE event. By default, the detection settings are those of the trigger. In the simple cases, the underlying event detector may be a basic date event, but it can also be a more elaborate apside event for apogee maneuvers for example.

    The maneuver is defined by a single velocity increment. If no AttitudeProvider is given, the current attitude of the spacecraft, defined by the current spacecraft state, will be used as the AttitudeProvider so the velocity increment should be given in the same pseudoinertial frame as the FieldSpacecraftState used to construct the propagator that will handle the maneuver. If an AttitudeProvider is given, the velocity increment given should be defined appropriately in consideration of that provider. So, a typical case for tangential maneuvers is to provide a LOF aligned attitude provider along with a velocity increment defined in accordance with that LOF aligned attitude provider; e.g. if the LOF aligned attitude provider was constructed using LOFType.VNC the velocity increment should be provided in VNC coordinates.

    The norm through which the delta-V maps to the mass consumption is chosen via the enum Control3DVectorCostType. Default is Euclidean.

    Beware that the triggering event detector must behave properly both before and after maneuver. If for example a node detector is used to trigger an inclination maneuver and the maneuver change the orbit to an equatorial one, the node detector will fail just after the maneuver, being unable to find a node on an equatorial orbit! This is a real case that has been encountered during validation ...

      • withDetectionSettings

        public FieldImpulseManeuver<T> withDetectionSettings​(FieldEventDetectionSettings<T> eventDetectionSettings)
        Creates a copy with different event detection settings.
        Parameters:
        eventDetectionSettings - new detection settings
        Returns:
        a new detector with same properties except for the detection settings
      • init

        public void init​(FieldSpacecraftState<T> s0,
                         FieldAbsoluteDate<T> t)
        Initialize event handler at the start of a propagation.

        This method is called once at the start of the propagation. It may be used by the event handler to initialize some internal data if needed.

        The default implementation does nothing

        Specified by:
        init in interface FieldEventDetector<T extends CalculusFieldElement<T>>
        Parameters:
        s0 - initial state
        t - target time for the integration
      • g

        public T g​(FieldSpacecraftState<T> fieldSpacecraftState)
        Compute the value of the switching function. This function must be continuous (at least in its roots neighborhood), as the integrator will need to find its roots to locate the events.
        Specified by:
        g in interface FieldEventDetector<T extends CalculusFieldElement<T>>
        Parameters:
        fieldSpacecraftState - the current state information: date, kinematics, attitude
