GravityGradientTorque Constructor (Point, CentralBody, Double, Matrix3By3Symmetric, Axes)

Initializes the gravity-gradient torque model.

Namespace:  AGI.Foundation.Celestial
Assembly:  AGI.Foundation.OrbitPropagation (in AGI.Foundation.OrbitPropagation.dll) Version: 24.1.418.0 (24.1.418.0)
Syntax
public GravityGradientTorque(
	Point bodyCenterOfMass,
	CentralBody centralBody,
	double gravitationalParameter,
	Matrix3By3Symmetric inertiaMatrix,
	Axes bodyAxes
)

Parameters

bodyCenterOfMass
Type: AGI.Foundation.GeometryPoint
The center of mass point of the gravity-gradient satellite.
centralBody
Type: AGI.Foundation.CelestialCentralBody
The body which creates the gravity and provides a reference point at its center of mass.
gravitationalParameter
Type: SystemDouble
The gravitational parameter to use when computing gravity, in meters cubed per second squared.
inertiaMatrix
Type: AGI.Foundation.CoordinatesMatrix3By3Symmetric
The 3x3 inertia matrix of the gravity-gradient satellite. This must be defined in the BodyAxes.
bodyAxes
Type: AGI.Foundation.GeometryAxes
The body axes of the gravity-gradient satellite. These should be the IntegrationAxes of the PropagationEulerianAxes associated with the gravity-gradient satellite.
