Spacecraft
Use the spacecraft blocks, available in the Aerospace Blockset > Spacecraft sublibrary, to model, simulate, and visualize the dynamics of spacecraft.
Blocks
Attitude Dynamics | Model attitude dynamics of one or more spacecraft (Since R2023a) |
Attitude Profile | Calculate shortest quaternion rotation (Since R2020b) |
CubeSat Vehicle | Model CubeSat vehicle (Since R2019a) |
Eclipse Shadow Model | Calculate fraction of solar disk visible at inertial positions (Since R2023b) |
Orbit Propagator | Propagate orbit of one or more spacecraft (Since R2020b) |
Spacecraft Dynamics | Model dynamics of one or more spacecraft (Since R2021b) |
Topics
