  • A Simple Leapfrog Integration Scheme to Find Optimal Interplanetary Trajectories

    Creator:
    Kelley, Scott M.
    Abstract:
    The calculation of interplanetary trajectories is a numeric problem which requires a high degree of precision for the results to be accurate. A computer program was written for this project which uses leapfrog integration combined with Newton’s method of iterative root finding to find ideal interplanetary trajectories. Reasonable initial conditions...
