Experiments with Julia for Astrodynamics Applications
Julia's potential for solving complex astrodynamics problems is studied. Julia is a high-level, new, dynamic programming language with performance approaching C/Fortran and has features like inbuilt parallelism, variable accuracy, integrated numerical ...

An optimal h6 scheme for solving TPBVP in astrodynamics
The present paper presents an accurate scheme for the solution of boundary value problems with two-point nonlinear boundary conditions. The proposed scheme is a linear multi-point method of sixth-order accuracy successfully used in uid dynamics and here ...

Mappings in Astrodynamics [PDF]
We review mappings mainly devised for the study of the dynamics of comets and asteroids. An attempt of a typology according to the method used to devise the mapping and to its deterministic or stochastic character is made.

Improved shaping approach to the preliminary design of low-thrust trajectories
This paper presents a general framework for the development of shape-based approaches to low-thrust trajectory design. A novel shaping method, based on a three-dimensional description of the trajectory in spherical coordinates, is developed within this ...
