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

Equinoctial elements.

Overview#

Properties

`semimajor_axis`	Half the length of the major axis of the orbital ellipse. Uses Distance Dimension.
`mean_motion`	Get or set the average angular rate of the satellite based on 2 body motion. Uses Rate Dimension.
`h`	h/k collectively describe the shape of the satellite’s orbit and the position of perigee. Dimensionless.
`k`	h/k collectively describe the shape of the satellite’s orbit and the position of perigee. Dimensionless.
`p`	p/q collectively describe the orientation of the satellite’s orbit plane. Dimensionless.
`q`	p/q collectively describe the orientation of the satellite’s orbit plane. Dimensionless.
`mean_longitude`	Specify a satellite’s position within its orbit at epoch and equals the sum of the classical Right Ascension of the Ascending Node, Argument of Perigee, and Mean Anomaly. Uses Angle Dimension.
`formulation`	Retrograde, which has its singularity at an inclination of 0 deg. Posigrade, which has its singularity at an inclination of 180 deg.
