Orbital Mechanics – Model & Simulation Software (OM-MSS)
by R C Chakraborty, July 09, 2015, Page 1 – 402.
A Monograph of Earth, Sun, Moon & Satellites Motion in Orbit.
Presented the Earth, Sun, Moon & Satellites Motion in Orbit – Model & Simulation Software with Examples, Problems and Software Driven Solutions.
The Software is written in ‘C’ Language. The Compiler used is Dev C++ and the Platform is a Windows 7, 64 bit Laptop. The Source Code around 30,000 Lines, is Compiled. The ‘OM-MSS.EXE’ File generated is of Size 1.5 KB. The Executable File, < OM-MSS.EXE >, is RUN Step-by-Step for a Set of Inputs.
The execution of OM- MSS illustrates its Scope, Capability, Accuracy, and Usage.
The Results seen on Computer Screen are put in a File, that in effect becomes :
‘A Monograph of Orbital Mechanics with Examples, Problems and Software Driven Solutions‘, Page 1 – 402, which includes the following :
* Introduction to OM-MSS Software
* Astronomical Time Standards and Time Conversions.
* Positional Astronomy – Earth Orbit Around Sun, Anomalies & Astronomical Events (Equinoxes, Solstices, Years & Seasons).
* Position of Sun on Celestial Sphere at input universal time (ut).
* Position of Earth on Celestial Sphere at input universal time (ut).
* Satellites Orbit Elements – Ephemeris, Keplerian elements, State vectors.
* Satellites Motion Around Earth – Orbital & Positional parameters at epoch.
* Satellite Pass for Earth Station – Prediction of Ground Trace Coordinates, Look angles, Universal / Local time & more.
