class ansys.stk.core.stkobjects.astrogator.AttitudeControl#

IntEnum

Overview#

VELOCITY_VECTOR

Along Velocity Vector (impulsive/finite) - the total thrust vector is aligned with the spacecraft’s velocity vector.

ANTI_VELOCITY_VECTOR

Anti-Velocity Vector (impulsive/finite) - the total thrust vector is opposite to the spacecraft’s velocity vector.

ATTITUDE

Attitude (impulsive/finite) - the thrust vector direction is defined using Euler Angles or a Quaternion.

FILE

File (impulsive/finite) - uses an attitude file to set the thrust vector direction.

THRUST_VECTOR

Thrust Vector (impulsive/finite) - the total thrust vector is explicitly specified in Cartesian or spherical form with respect to the thrust axes.

PLUGIN

Plugin (finite) - thrust vector direction is defined using a COM plugin.

TIME_VARYING

Time Varying (finite) - polynomial and sine representations for the azimuth and elevation of the thrust vector.

LAGRANGE_INTERPOLATION

Lagrange Interpolation (optimal finite, always set) - supports the ‘Run current nodes’ execution mode of the Optimal Finite Maneuver.
