CalculationToolScalarSurfaceDistanceBetweenPoints#

class ansys.stk.core.analysis_workbench.CalculationToolScalarSurfaceDistanceBetweenPoints#

Bases: ICalculationToolScalar, IAnalysisWorkbenchComponent

Surface distance along the specified central body ellipsoid between two points (or their respective projections if specified at altitude).

Overview#

point_1

Starting point on the central body ellipsoid (or projection of point at altitude onto the ellipsoid).

point_2

Terminating point on the central body ellipsoid (or projection of point at altitude onto the ellipsoid).

surface_central_body

Central body on which the surface distance between points is to be calculated.

differencing_time_step

Time step used in numerical evaluation of scalar calculation time rate of change (derivatives using central differencing).
