DisturbanceFlatPlate:

Path: SC/Demos/Disturbances

% Disturbance analysis of two thin plates. 
 This model mimics the effect of two solar panels which often dominate the
 disturbances at higher altitudes. The analysis is performed in LEO. Two
 pointing modes are available: ECI pointing with the arrays towards the
 sun, and Earth pointing with the plates facing the Earth.

 Things to try:
 
 - Vary the orbital parameters
 - Add an additional rotation to the LVLH pointing
