Path: Orbit/ThreeBody
% Right-hand-side for the forced circular restricted three body problem. The state includes mass. - X is along primary - secondary body line - Z is normal to plane of motion - Y completes right-hand system -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: xDot = FCRTBPRHS( x, t, mu, a, uE ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ x (7,1) The state vector [r;v;m] t (1,1) Time (unused) mu (1,1) Non-dimensional mass parameter. Smaller mass divided by total mass of system. a (3,1) Acceleration applied to body in rotating frame uE (1,1) Exhaust velocity (non-dimensional) ------- Outputs ------- xDot (7,1) The derivative of the state vector --------------------------------------------------------------------------
