```
public class NumericalPropagator
extends Object
implements Propagator, Observer
```
This class propagates SpacecraftState using numerical integration.
Numerical propagation is much more accurate than analytical propagation like for example keplerian or Eckstein-Hechler, but requires a few more steps to set up to be used properly. Whereas analytical propagators are configured only thanks to their various constructors and can be used immediately after construction, numerical propagators configuration involve setting several parameters between construction time and propagation time.

The configuration parameters that can be set are:
- the initial spacecraft state (setInitialState(SpacecraftState))
- the central attraction coefficient (setMu(double))
- the various force models (addForceModel(ForceModel), removeForceModels())
- the type of orbital parameters to be used for propagation ( setOrbitType(OrbitType)),
- the type of position angle to be used in orbital parameters to be used for propagation where it is relevant (setPositionAngleType(PositionAngle)),
- whether additional equations (for example Jacobians) should be propagated along with orbital state ( addAdditionalEquations(AdditionalEquations)),
- the discrete events that should be triggered during propagation ( addEventDetector(EventDetector), clearEventsDetectors())
- the binding logic with the rest of the application (setSlaveMode(), setMasterMode(double, PatriusFixedStepHandler), setMasterMode(PatriusStepHandler), setEphemerisMode(), getGeneratedEphemeris())
From these configuration parameters, only the initial state is mandatory. The default propagation settings are in equinoctial parameters with true longitude argument. If the central attraction coefficient is not explicitly specified, the one used to define the initial orbit will be used. However, specifying only the initial state and perhaps the central attraction coefficient would mean the propagator would use only keplerian forces. In this case, the simpler KeplerianPropagator class would perhaps be more effective.

The underlying numerical integrator set up in the constructor may also have its own configuration parameters. Typical configuration parameters for adaptive stepsize integrators are the min, max and perhaps start step size as well as the absolute and/or relative errors thresholds.

The state that is seen by the integrator is a simple six elements double array. The six first elements are either:
- the equinoctial orbit parameters (a, e_x, e_y, h_x, h_y, λ_M or λ_E or λ_v) in meters and radians,
- the Keplerian orbit parameters (a, e, i, ω, Ω, M or E or v) in meters and radians,
- the circular orbit parameters (a, e_x, e_y, i, Ω, α_M or α_E or α_v) in meters and radians,
- the Cartesian orbit parameters (x, y, z, v_x, v_y, v_z) in meters and meters per seconds.
The following code snippet shows a typical setting for Low Earth Orbit propagation in equinoctial parameters and true longitude argument:
```
 final double dP = 0.001;
 final double minStep = 0.001;
 final double maxStep = 500;
 final double initStep = 60;
 AdaptiveStepsizeIntegrator integrator =
     new DormandPrince853Integrator(minStep, maxStep, AbsTolerance, RelTolerance);
 integrator.setInitialStepSize(initStep);
 propagator = new NumericalPropagator(integrator);
 
```
The same propagator can be reused for several state extrapolations, by resetting the initial state without modifying the other configuration parameters. However, the same instance cannot be used simultaneously by different threads, the class is not thread-safe.
Warning : when using a fixed step handler (method setMasterMode(double, PatriusFixedStepHandler), with an Assembly, users must access to the additional states (such as mass) by the spacecraft AND NOT using the Assembly since Assembly is synchronized only once per integration step. In any other case (using an PatriusStepHandler ) for instance), both assembly and spacecraft can be used to retrieve additional states.

```
public NumericalPropagator(FirstOrderIntegrator integratorIn)
```
    Create a new instance of NumericalPropagator, based on orbit definition mu. After creation, the instance is empty, i.e. there are no perturbing forces at all. This means that if addForceModel is not called after creation, the integrated orbit will follow a keplerian evolution only. The defaults are OrbitType.EQUINOCTIAL for propagation orbit type and PositionAngle.TRUE for position angle type.
    The new instance of NumericalPropagator is declared as an observer of the contained integrator. As observer, it gets notified if a detector is deleted in the integrator sub-layer, to update its own detectors list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    integratorIn - numerical integrator to use for propagation.

    Get all the events detectors that have been added.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getEventsDetectors in interface Propagator
    
    Returns:
    
    an unmodifiable collection of the added detectors
    
    See Also:
    
    Propagator.addEventDetector(EventDetector), Propagator.clearEventsDetectors()
  - clearEventsDetectors
```
public void clearEventsDetectors()
```
    Remove all events detectors.
    
    Specified by:

  - addForceModel
```
public void addForceModel(ForceModel model)
```
    Add a force model to the global perturbation model.
    If the force is an attraction model, the central attraction coefficient of this force will be used during the propagation.
    
    If the force is a Newtonian attraction model, the central attraction coefficient will be updated but the force will not be added to the model (already present).
    
    If this method is not called at all, the integrated orbit will follow a keplerian evolution only (using the central attraction coefficient of the orbit).
    
    Advice: in order to minimize absorption effects leading to reduced accuracy, add force models from least perturbing force to highest perturbing force. Example: for LEO orbits, drag should be added in last.
    
    Parameters:
    
    model - perturbing ForceModel to add
    
    See Also:
    
    removeForceModels(), setMu(double)
  - removeForceModels
```
public void removeForceModels()
```
    Remove all perturbing force models from the global perturbation model.
    Once all perturbing forces have been removed (and as long as no new force model is added), the integrated orbit will follow a keplerian evolution only.
    
    See Also:
    
    addForceModel(ForceModel)
  - getForceModels
```
public List<ForceModel> getForceModels()

    Specified by:
    
    getMode in interface Propagator

  - getFrame
```
public Frame getFrame()
```
    Get the frame in which the orbit is propagated.
    4 cases are possible:
    - The propagation frame has been defined (using Propagator.setOrbitFrame(Frame)): it is returned.
    - The propagation frame has not been defined and the initial state has been provided and is expressed in a pseudo-inertial frame: the initial state frame is returned.
    - The propagation frame has not been defined and the initial state has been provided and is not expressed in a pseudo-inertial frame: null is returned.
    - The propagation frame has not been defined and the initial state has not been provided: null is returned.
    Specified by:
    
    getFrame in interface Propagator
    
    Returns:
    
    frame in which the orbit is propagated
  - setSlaveMode
```
public void setSlaveMode()
```
    Set the propagator to slave mode.
    This mode is used when the user needs only the final orbit at the target time. The (slave) propagator computes this result and return it to the calling (master) application, without any intermediate feedback.
    
    This is the default mode.
    
    Note that this method has the side effect of replacing the step handlers of the underlying integrator set up in the constructor or the setIntegrator method. So if a specific step handler is needed, it should be added after this method has been callled.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setSlaveMode in interface Propagator
    
    See Also:
    
    Propagator.setMasterMode(double, PatriusFixedStepHandler), Propagator.setMasterMode(PatriusStepHandler), Propagator.setEphemerisMode(), Propagator.getMode(), Propagator.SLAVE_MODE
  - setMasterMode
```
public void setMasterMode(double h,
                          PatriusFixedStepHandler handler)
```
    Set the propagator to master mode with fixed steps.
    This mode is used when the user needs to have some custom function called at the end of each finalized step during integration. The (master) propagator integration loop calls the (slave) application callback methods at each finalized step.
    
    Note that this method has the side effect of replacing the step handlers of the underlying integrator set up in the constructor or the setIntegrator method. So if a specific step handler is needed, it should be added after this method has been called.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setMasterMode in interface Propagator
    
    Parameters:
    
    h - fixed stepsize (s)
    
    handler - handler called at the end of each finalized step
    
    See Also:
    
    Propagator.setSlaveMode(), Propagator.setMasterMode(PatriusStepHandler), Propagator.setEphemerisMode(), Propagator.getMode(), Propagator.MASTER_MODE
  - setMasterMode
```
public void setMasterMode(PatriusStepHandler handler)
```
    Set the propagator to master mode with variable steps.
    This mode is used when the user needs to have some custom function called at the end of each finalized step during integration. The (master) propagator integration loop calls the (slave) application callback methods at each finalized step.
    
    Note that this method has the side effect of replacing the step handlers of the underlying integrator set up in the constructor or the setIntegrator method. So if a specific step handler is needed, it should be added after this method has been callled.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setMasterMode in interface Propagator
    
    Parameters:
    
    handler - handler called at the end of each finalized step
    
    See Also:
    
    Propagator.setSlaveMode(), Propagator.setMasterMode(double, PatriusFixedStepHandler), Propagator.setEphemerisMode(), Propagator.getMode(), Propagator.MASTER_MODE
  - setEphemerisMode
```
public void setEphemerisMode()
```
    Set the propagator to ephemeris generation mode.
    This mode is used when the user needs random access to the orbit state at any time between the initial and target times, and in no sequential order. A typical example is the implementation of search and iterative algorithms that may navigate forward and backward inside the propagation range before finding their result.
    
    Beware that since this mode stores all intermediate results, it may be memory intensive for long integration ranges and high precision/short time steps.
    
    Note that this method has the side effect of replacing the step handlers of the underlying integrator set up in the constructor or the setIntegrator method. So if a specific step handler is needed, it should be added after this method has been called.

    name - the additional state name
    
    absTol - absolute tolerances

  - propagate
```
public SpacecraftState propagate(AbsoluteDate target)
                          throws PropagationException
```
    Propagate towards a target date.
    Simple propagators use only the target date as the specification for computing the propagated state. More feature rich propagators can consider other information and provide different operating modes or G-stop facilities to stop at pinpointed events occurrences. In these cases, the target date is only a hint, not a mandatory objective.
    
    Specified by:
    
    propagate in interface Propagator
    
    Parameters:
    
    target - target date towards which orbit state should be propagated
    
    Returns:
    
    propagated state
    
    Throws:
    
    PropagationException - if state cannot be propagated
  - propagate
```
public SpacecraftState propagate(AbsoluteDate tStart,
                                 AbsoluteDate tEnd)
                          throws PropagationException
```
    Propagate from a start date towards a target date.
    Those propagators use a start date and a target date to compute the propagated state. For propagators using event detection mechanism, if the provided start date is different from the initial state date, a first, simple propagation is performed, without processing any event computation. Then complete propagation is performed from start date to target date.
    
    Specified by:
    
    propagate in interface Propagator
    
    Parameters:
    
    tStart - start date from which orbit state should be propagated
    
    tEnd - target date to which orbit state should be propagated
    
    Returns:
    
    propagated state
    
    Throws:
    
    PropagationException - if state cannot be propagated
  - getPVCoordinates
```
public PVCoordinates getPVCoordinates(AbsoluteDate date,
                                      Frame frame)
                               throws PatriusException
```
    Get the PVCoordinates of the body in the selected frame.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getPVCoordinates in interface PVCoordinatesProvider
    
    Parameters:
    
    date - current date
    
    frame - the frame where to define the position
    
    Returns:
    
    position/velocity of the body (m and m/s)
    
    Throws:
    
    PatriusException - if position cannot be computed in given frame
  - getCalls
```
public int getCalls()
```
    Get the number of calls to the differential equations computation method.
    The number of calls is reset each time the propagate(AbsoluteDate) method is called.
    
    Returns:
    
    number of calls to the differential equations computation method
  - setUpEventDetector
```
protected void setUpEventDetector(EventDetector osf)
```
    Wrap an Orekit event detector and register it to the integrator.
    
    Parameters:
    
    osf - event handler to wrap
  - getBasicDimension
```
public int getBasicDimension()
```
    Get state vector dimension without additional parameters.
    
    Returns:
    
    state vector dimension without additional parameters.
  - getDimension
```
public int getDimension()
```
    Compute complete state vector dimension.
    
    Returns:
    
    state vector dimension
  - tolerances
```
public static double[][] tolerances(double dP,
                                    Orbit orbit,
                                    OrbitType type)
```
    Estimate tolerance vectors for integrators.
    The errors are estimated from partial derivatives properties of orbits, starting from a scalar position error specified by the user. Considering the energy conservation equation V = sqrt(mu (2/r - 1/a)), we get at constant energy (i.e. on a Keplerian trajectory):
```
 V² r |dV| = mu |dr|
 
```
    So we deduce a scalar velocity error consistent with the position error. From here, we apply orbits Jacobians matrices to get consistent errors on orbital parameters.
    
    The tolerances are only orders of magnitude, and integrator tolerances are only local estimates, not global ones. So some care must be taken when using these tolerances. Setting 1mm as a position error does NOT mean the tolerances will guarantee a 1mm error position after several orbits integration.
    Parameters:
    
    dP - user specified position error
    
    orbit - reference orbit
    
    type - propagation type for the meaning of the tolerance vectors elements (it may be different from orbit.getType())
    
    Returns:
    
    a two rows array, row 0 being the absolute tolerance error and row 1 being the relative tolerance error
  - update
