PATRIUS V4.8 is a major release adding some new features and correcting some bugs.

New functionalities

• Solar Radiation Pressure classes (SolarRadiationPressureCircular and SolarRadiationPressureEllipsoid) have been generalized:
  • They can take into account or not eclipses
  • The occulting body can be any body
  • There can be as many occulting bodies as required
• Marini-Murray tropospheric model has been added (MariniMurrayModel class)
• Add of synodic frame through class SynodicFrame (replacement of the former class)
• Several classes have been added to handle Chebyshev polynomials:
  • PolynomialChebyshevFunction for building and manipulation of such polynomials
  • ChebyshevDecompositionEngine for getting an approximation of function as a sum of Chebyshev polynomials

Bugs fixes

• Correction of matrix multiplication for non-square matrices in some specific cases
• Correction of sub-matrix extraction in DecomposedSymmetricMatrix
• Correction of azimut computation through method computeBearing of class ProjectionEllipsoidUtils
• Correction of facets orientation produced by method toObj of class GeodeticMeshLoader
• Correction of evaluation of the distance between a sensor and a body (used in particular for detectors such as StationToSatMutualVisibility)
