Orbit modeling

Orbit modeling is the process of creating mathematical models to simulate motion of a massive body as it moves in orbit around another massive body due to gravity. Other forces such as gravitational attraction from tertiary bodies, air resistance, solar pressure, or thrust from a propulsion system are typically modeled as secondary effects. Directly modeling an orbit can push the limits of machine precision due to the need to model small perturbations to very large orbits. Because of this, perturbation methods are often used to model the orbit in order to achieve better accuracy. (Wikipedia).

A solar system, a simulation made with Excel

An Excel simulation of the solar system. You can see how things are recursively computed: the mutual gravity force from the locations, the accelerations, the velocities, and finally the updated locations. The solar eclipse is also shown. This is clip is intended to illustrate Chapter 24 Ap

Orbit of a set in abstract algebra

In this video we start to take a look at the orbit-stabilizer theorem. Our first stop is the orbit of a set. The orbit is created by taking an arbitrary element of a set and acting on that element by all the elements in the set of an an arbitrary group. In this video, we look at a few p

Orbital Simulations with MATLAB

A quick and dirty inverse-square law simulation with two and three point masses. I give the masses an initial velocity and position and away it goes (except for some numerical error in calculating the changes in position)!
