PhaseIdealSolarSailOptions.ApplySunPointingConstraint Property

Top 

Description

Whether to constrain the cartesian control variable vector to never point towards the sun. In other words, the dot product of the cartesian control variable vector and the position vector with respect to the sun will be constrained to be greater than or equal to 0.

 

Warning: Setting this property to false (0) will often result in a non-physical problem unless the cartesian control variable vector is constrained directly by the user to never point towards the sun.
