public class ConstantThrustManeuver
extends JacobiansParameterizable
implements ForceModel, GradientModel

This class implements a simple maneuver with constant thrust.

The maneuver is defined by a inDirection in satellite frame or in a frame defined by user or in a LOF with type defined by user. In first case, the current attitude of the spacecraft, defined by the current spacecraft state, will be used to convert the thrust inDirection in satellite frame into inertial frame when inDirection is defined in satellite frame. A typical case for tangential maneuvers is to use a LOF aligned attitude provider for state propagation and a velocity increment along the +X satellite axis.

The implementation of this class enables the computation of partial derivatives by finite differences with respect to thrust and flow rate.

The maneuver is associated to two triggering EventDetector (one to start the thrust, the other one to stop the thrust): the maneuver is triggered only if the underlying event generates a STOP event, in which case this class will generate a RESET_STATE event (the stop event from the underlying object is therefore filtered out).

Note: including this force in a numerical propagator with adaptive step-size integrator may require to set up a small lower bound for step-size (such as 1E-8s) since force discontinuity may cause difficulties to the integrator when the maneuver stops.

Warning: if variable ISP and thrust are used (using PropulsiveProperty), ISP and thrust parameters cannot be used (set as NaN).

Method Detail

getISP

public double getISP()

Get the specific impulse.

Warning: if a variable ISP has been used, NaN will be returned.

Returns:

specific impulse (s).

getTankProperty

public IPartProperty getTankProperty()

Get the tank property.

Returns:

tank property

getPropulsiveProperty

public IPartProperty getPropulsiveProperty()

Get the propulsive property.

Returns:

propulsive property

getStartDate

public AbsoluteDate getStartDate()

Return the maneuver start date (if a date or a DateDetector as been provided).

Returns:

the maneuver start date if a date or a DateDetector as been provided, null otherwise.

getEndDate

public AbsoluteDate getEndDate()

Return the maneuver stop date (if a date or a DateDetector as been provided).

Returns:

the maneuver stop date if a date or a DateDetector as been provided, null otherwise.

getFrame

public Frame getFrame()

Get the frame of the acceleration inDirection. Null if the acceleration is expressed by default in the satellite frame.

Returns:

the frame of the acceleration

setFiring

public void setFiring(boolean isFiring)

Set maneuver status. This method is meant to be used if the propagation starts during a maneuver. As a result thrust will be firing at the beginning of the propagation and stops when crossing stop event.

Used in conjunction with isFiring(), the user can stop/restart a propagation during a maneuver.

Parameters:

isFiring - true if propagation should start during the maneuver

isFiring

public boolean isFiring()

Returns maneuver status (firing or not).

Used in conjunction with setFiring(boolean), the user can stop/restart a propagation during a maneuver.

Returns:

true if maneuver is thrust firing.
