OrbitalElementsConvertTimeFromPeriapsisToParabolicAnomaly Method

Converts the time from periapsis passage to parabolic anomaly. The value returned is signed and monotonic.

Namespace:  AGI.Foundation.Coordinates
Assembly:  AGI.Foundation.Core (in AGI.Foundation.Core.dll) Version: 24.1.418.0 (24.1.418.0)
Syntax
public static double ConvertTimeFromPeriapsisToParabolicAnomaly(
	double timeFromPeriapsis,
	double radiusOfPeriapsis,
	double eccentricity,
	double gravitationalParameter
)

Parameters

timeFromPeriapsis
Type: SystemDouble
The time from periapsis passage (time).
radiusOfPeriapsis
Type: SystemDouble
The radius of periapsis (distance).
eccentricity
Type: SystemDouble
The eccentricity of the orbit.
gravitationalParameter
Type: SystemDouble
The gravitational parameter (distance cubed per time squared).

Return Value

Type: Double
The parabolic anomaly (radians).
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
ArgumentOutOfRangeExceptionThrown when eccentricity is not equal to one (indicating that the orbit is not parabolic), or if it is negative, or radiusOfPeriapsis or gravitationalParameter is negative or zero.
