Syntax

public Motion<UnitCartesian, Cartesian> SurfaceNormalMotion(
	Motion<Cartesian> surfaceMotion,
	int order
)

Public Function SurfaceNormalMotion ( 
	surfaceMotion As Motion(Of Cartesian),
	order As Integer
) As Motion(Of UnitCartesian, Cartesian)

public:
Motion<UnitCartesian, Cartesian> SurfaceNormalMotion(
	Motion<Cartesian> surfaceMotion, 
	int order
)

member SurfaceNormalMotion : 
        surfaceMotion : Motion<Cartesian> * 
        order : int -> Motion<UnitCartesian, Cartesian>

surfaceMotion: Type: AGI.Foundation.Motion<Cartesian>
The motion of the surface point.
order: Type: System.Int32
The order of the highest derivative to convert. To convert just the position, pass 0 for this value. To convert velocity as well, pass 1.

Type: Motion<UnitCartesian, Cartesian>
The motion of the surface normal vector.

Remarks

The surfaceMotion must be in a fixed reference frame centered on the center of mass of this ellipsoid and must be the motion of a surface point.
