Hi all, is it possible perform in Orekit maneuvers optimization ?
Let’s say a LEO GEO trasfert, with a FINITE thrust maneuver, optimizing the total mass or the time transfert.
Many thanks for your time and help
Yes, you can do that, but it is slightly not straightforward.
The underlying idea is to use some of the engines that compute the column of a Jacobian matrix related to maneuvers parameters (for example mean date of the maneuver) and to set up an optimizer around the propagator. You can look at the org.orekit.forces.maneuvers.jacobians package.
OK, I got it.
Thank you for your time and help
