grss.libgrss.Event

class grss.libgrss.Event

Bases: pybind11_object

The Event class contains the properties of an impulsive or continuous event. Impulsive events are instantaneous changes in the velocity of the body. Continuous events are an exponentially decaying acceleration acting on the body.

Methods

__init__(self)

Attributes

bodyName	Name of the body the event is acting on.
deltaV	Delta-V vector of the event.
deltaVEst	Flag for whether to estimate the delta-V of the event.
eventEst	Flag for whether to estimate anything for the event.
expAccel0	Initial acceleration vector for the continuous event.
expAccel0Est	Flag for whether to estimate the initial acceleration of the continuous event.
isContinuous	Whether the event is a continuous event.
multiplier	Multiplier of the event.
multiplierEst	Flag for whether to estimate the multiplier of the event.
t	Time of the event (MJD TDB).
tau	Time constant for the exponential decay of the continuous event.
tauEst	Flag for whether to estimate the time constant of the continuous event.

property bodyName

Name of the body the event is acting on. Throws an error if the body is not found in the simulation.

property deltaV

Delta-V vector of the event.

property deltaVEst

Flag for whether to estimate the delta-V of the event. False by default.

property eventEst

Flag for whether to estimate anything for the event. False by default.

property expAccel0

Initial acceleration vector for the continuous event.

property expAccel0Est

Flag for whether to estimate the initial acceleration of the continuous event. False by default.

property isContinuous

Whether the event is a continuous event. False by default.

property multiplier

Multiplier of the event. For impulsive events, this is a scalar multiplier for the delta-V vector. Not used for continuous events.

property multiplierEst

Flag for whether to estimate the multiplier of the event. False by default.

property t

Time of the event (MJD TDB).

property tau

Time constant for the exponential decay of the continuous event.

property tauEst

Flag for whether to estimate the time constant of the continuous event. False by default.
