WsfEarthMonopoleTerm

WsfEarthMonopoleTerm inherits WsfOrbitalDynamicsTerm

Overview

The WsfEarthMonopoleTerm represents the point mass gravitational field of the Earth. See also Earth Monopole.

Static Methods

WsfEarthMonopoleTerm Construct()

WsfEarthMonopoleTerm Construct(double aGravitationalParameter)

WsfEarthMonopoleTerm Construct(string aModel)

Create a term representing Earth’s point mass gravitational field with the given gravitational parameter in SI units. If no gravitational parameter is specified, this term will use the EGM-96 value.

Alternatively, users may select the Earth’s gravitational parameter using the name of a gravity model. Allowed values are ‘wgs84’ and ‘egm96’, which select the WGS-84 and EGM-96 values, respectively.

Methods

double GravitationalParameter()

Return the gravitational parameter for this dynamical term.
