LowThrustDVToTransfer:

Path: Missions/AsteroidProspector

% Compute delta-v assuming full thrust applied during all transfer times.
   Approximate delta-V required to transfer to another orbit. Assumes one
   Keplerian element is changed at a time. Takes in transfer times from
   another function.

   Form:
   [dVTot,dVElem] = LowThrustDVToTransfer( dT, m0, thrust, Isp )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

   ------
   Inputs
   ------
   dT            (5,1)     Transfer times for each orbital element (sec)
                             See LowThrustTimeToTransfer.m
   m0            (1,1)     Initial mass of spacecraft (kg)
   thrust        (1,1)     Thrust magnitude (kN)
   Isp           (1,1)     Specific impulse (sec)

   -------
   Outputs
   -------
   dVTot         (1,1)     Total delta-v for changing all elements (km/s)
   dVElem        (5,1)     Delta-v for changing each element (km/s)
