||
The JAT (Java Astrodynamics Toolkit) simulate different space problems such as earth-moon orbits, | ||
trajectories and velocities of objects and the Two Body Problem. | ||
|
||
Our project explored the Three Body Problem, and our initial goal was to plot the orbits of three planets. | ||
We created a new ThreeBodyAPL.java class to work with the integrators for the orbit and we modified the | ||
TheeBodyExample.java class to work with the derivatives and integrators. Through doing this project, we were | ||
able to edit the classes to be able to graph the positions of mass. | ||
|
||
Although this was no exactly what we wanted our modification to be, this is a huge step towards having a functional | ||
Three Body Problem. In addition to that, those who wish to edit this in the future will have their basis for the | ||
Three Body Problem. The issue that we hit with our modification was that we could not implement the integrators to | ||
compute what we needed to calculate the orbits of the planets. |
