% Simple thruster force model for orbit simulations Models the force for a thruster using a direction vector and a scalar magnitude. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: d = ForceSimple; % default data structure f = ForceSimple( d ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ d (.) Data structure .uThrustECI (3,1) Thrust unit vector in the ECI frame .thrustMag (1,1) Thrust magnitude (N) ------- Outputs ------- f (3,1) ECI force vector (N) --------------------------------------------------------------------------
