Trajectory

SolarBeam is a desktop application for drawing solar diagrams. You supply the geographical position, it draws a diagram showing the Sun's trajectory over your location at various times of the year. It also shows the times of sunrise and sunset. Platforms: Windows, Mac, Linux

Space Ballistics is arcade game like Amiga's Gravity Wars. You need set angle and torpedo power to hit enemy, but gravitation from some planet make trajectory not easy. Platforms: Windows, Mac, Linux

Drag the ball to aim, release it to shoot... and put the ball in the hole! "Holes and Balls" is the unique game where you'll have to throw a ball against walls, pens or even matchboxes! Take a few seconds to target, throw the ball and follow its realistic trajectory through each puzzling... Platforms: Mac

This script is intended to illustrate the concepts of eyediagramm, constellation, ISI and to understand the effects of additive noise power, channel frequency band restriction, number of possible states within a symbol period, affecting the quality of the transmission.Three methods are employed...

This toolbox contains a satellite tracker MSatTrack. You can input orbital parameters defined by yourself or existing ones (included). The tracking is done in 3D and the resulting grountracks are then plotted on a 2D map after the simulation is done. Several satellites can be simulated... Platforms: Matlab

The Particle Swarm Optimization Research Toolbox was written to assist with thesis research combating the premature convergence problem of particle swarm optimization (PSO). The control panel offers ample flexibility to accommodate various research directions. After specifying your intentions,... Platforms: Matlab

Skipping StoneA richly featured application to design trajectories for interplanetary space missions using (multiple) gravity-assist maneuvers. Its most prominent capabilities are:- single/multi objective optimization- can work with a multitude of (heuristic) optimization algorithms- Low/high... Platforms: Matlab

Using a table of initial positions and velocities derived from JPL's "Horisons" System (http://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/?horizonshttp://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/?horizons) , it is possible to predict the motion of all of the elements in the table.The default table (supplied) contains 25 bodies - the planets of...

A Lambert-orbital boundary value problem can be stated as"Find the orbit/trajectory of a spacecraft that flies from position [r1] to [r2], taking a time [tf] and making [m] complete orbits before arriving at [r2]. "The solution to each Lambert-problem is NOT unique; one can travel to [r2] via the... Platforms: Matlab

When a person writes across a board, he/she positions his/her arm in a comfortable writing configuration by moving his/her body rather than reaching out the arm.The same situation happens in many case such as people transporting a heavy object cooperatively. Therefore, when a mobile manipulator... Platforms: Matlab

Plot streamlines and pressure coefficent of an unviscious, uncomprimibile,irrotational flow around a cylinder section (r=1) that spins around the z axis (coming out of the xy plane). This result is achieved by superimposition of elementary solution of the potential function PHI, where [Ux , Uy] =... Platforms: Matlab

It will be toolbox in matlab for physics teachers. It will be visualization of some standart problems in mechanics, electromagnetics, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics and other. The toolbox will contain standart physics problems visualizations and usefull functions to make own physics... Platforms: Matlab

Five scripts that demonstrate some aspects of the dynamics of rotating reference frames:1) rotation.m shows a very simple 3-d trajectory from inertial and rotating reference frames.2) Coriolis.m simulates a 2-d trajectory in a rotating frame that omits the centrifugal force. This allows several... Platforms: Matlab

This demonstration is developed for use with the experimental motion system that you see in the picture, but also makes sense when you do not have this hardware available.It contains a script that guides you through a fairly complete Model Based Design cycle, starting with a problem formulation... Platforms: Matlab

Motion systems are widely used in industry; for instance for robotics and pick-and place units. In most cases they are characterized by a repetitive motion or sequence of motions between fixed positions. The actuator, or motor, is limited in speed and acceleration such that any decent motion...

This interactive simulation shows an airplane flying at constant horizontal velocity preparing to drop relief supplies to a small island. As captain of the plane, the student must first calculate the release point for dropping the package. As the simulation runs, press the red "+" button at the... Platforms: Mac

The STP Sensitivity to Initial Conditions program shows 11 particles in a line with the same velocity. You can perturb the system slightly and observe how sensitive the trajectory is to a small change. The default perturbation strength is 1.00001. STP SensitivityToInitialConditions is part of a...

The Ejs Anisotropic Oscillator model displays the dynamics of a mass connected to two opposing springs. The simulation displays the motion of the mass as well as the trajectory plot. The initial position of the mass can be changed by dragging. The unstretched lengths of the springs can changed as... Platforms: Mac

The Ejs Falling Rod Leaning on a Wall model displays the dynamics of a falling rod that is initially leaning against a vertical wall. The rod is dropped from rest while its end points are in contact with a vertical wall and a horizontal table. Friction is neglected. Fall times and the trajectory... Platforms: Mac
