Modules

deltavctrl

Defines some velocity change controllers.

drag

The drag module handles drag in a very basic fashion. Do not use for high fidelity dynamics.

guidance

Defines a few examples of guidance laws.

orbital

The orbital module handles all Cartesian based orbital dynamics.

solarpressure

Defines solar radiation pressure models

spacecraft

The spacecraft module allows for simulation of spacecraft dynamics in general, including propulsion/maneuvers.

sph_harmonics

Define the spherical harmonic models. This module allows loading gravity models from PDS, EGM2008 and GMAT’s own COF files.

Enums

DynamicsError

Stores dynamical model errors

Traits

AccelModel

The AccelModel trait handles immutable dynamics which return an acceleration. Those can be added directly to Orbital Dynamics for example.

Dynamics

The Dynamics trait handles and stores any equation of motion and the state is integrated.

ForceModel

The ForceModel trait handles immutable dynamics which return a force. Those will be divided by the mass of the spacecraft to compute the acceleration (F = ma).
