VectorGeometryToolPointCovarianceGrazing#

class ansys.stk.core.analysis_workbench.VectorGeometryToolPointCovarianceGrazing#

Bases: IVectorGeometryToolPoint, IAnalysisWorkbenchComponentTimeProperties, IAnalysisWorkbenchComponent

The point of closest approach to the surface of the specified position covariance ellipsoid surface along a defined direction. Position covariance must be available for a vehicle object to be considered a possible target for this option.

Overview#

reference_point

Specify a reference point which will serve as the starting location for the line along which the grazing point will be computed.

direction_vector

Specify a direction vector to be used in conjunction with the displacement vector from the selected target object to the reference point to define a plane in which the line will lie.

target_name

Specify a target object about which the covariance ellipsoid is centered.

distance

The point of closest approach to the covariance ellipsoid surface occurs at the specified distance.

probability

Specify a probability that the true position is inside the ellipsoid boundary.

scale

Specify a scale factor which is applied to the one sigma ellipsoid.

use_probability

A flag controlling whether to use probability or scale factor.
