Constructor Detail

LatitudeExtremumDetector

public LatitudeExtremumDetector(OneAxisEllipsoid body)

Build a new detector.

The new instance uses default values for maximal checking interval (AbstractDetector.DEFAULT_MAX_CHECK) and convergence threshold (AbstractDetector.DEFAULT_THRESHOLD).

Parameters:

body - body on which the latitude is defined

LatitudeExtremumDetector

public LatitudeExtremumDetector(double maxCheck,
                                double threshold,
                                OneAxisEllipsoid body)

Build a detector.

Parameters:

maxCheck - maximal checking interval (s)

threshold - convergence threshold (s)

body - body on which the latitude is defined

LatitudeExtremumDetector

protected LatitudeExtremumDetector(EventDetectionSettings detectionSettings,
                                   EventHandler handler,
                                   OneAxisEllipsoid body)

Protected constructor with full parameters.

This constructor is not public as users are expected to use the builder API with the various withXxx() methods to set up the instance in a readable manner without using a huge amount of parameters.

Parameters:

detectionSettings - event detection settings

handler - event handler to call at event occurrences

body - body on which the latitude is defined

Method Detail

create

protected LatitudeExtremumDetector create(EventDetectionSettings detectionSettings,
                                          EventHandler newHandler)

Build a new instance.

Specified by:

create in class AbstractDetector<LatitudeExtremumDetector>

Parameters:

detectionSettings - detection settings

newHandler - event handler to call at event occurrences

Returns:

a new instance of the appropriate sub-type

getBody

public BodyShape getBody()

Get the body on which the geographic zone is defined.

Returns:

body on which the geographic zone is defined

g

public double g(SpacecraftState s)

Compute the value of the detection function.

The value is the spacecraft latitude time derivative.

Parameters:

s - the current state information: date, kinematics, attitude

Returns:

spacecraft latitude time derivative
