Method Detail

getAnelasticityCorrectionLoveNumber2

double[] getAnelasticityCorrectionLoveNumber2()

Get second degree Love number for the third body perturbation.

Returns:

a table of Love numbers

getAnelasticityCorrectionLoveNumber3

double[] getAnelasticityCorrectionLoveNumber3()

Get third degree Love number for the third body perturbation.

Returns:

a table of Love numbers

getEllipticityCorrectionLoveNumber2

double[] getEllipticityCorrectionLoveNumber2()

Get second degree Love number for the ellipticity perturbation.

Returns:

a table of Love numbers

getFrequencyCorrection

double[][] getFrequencyCorrection()

Get the frequency corrections as a table of Love number corrections associated to a Doodson number i.e. a wave.

Returns:

a table of frequency corrections (for the considered wave, double[i][0] is the real part and double[i][1] is the imaginary part of Love number correction).

getNutationCoefficients

double[][] getNutationCoefficients()

Get constant coefficients coming from the luni solar nutation theory in order to compute the fundamental arguments.

Returns:

a table of nutation coefficients

getDoodsonNumbers

double[] getDoodsonNumbers()

Get the Doodson numbers used by the standard.

Returns:

table of Doodson numbers.

getStandard

TidesStandards.TidesStandard getStandard()

Returns:

the TidesStandard enum for this standard.
