Kessler.rs
Kessler is a Rust package that allows users to simulate fragmentation events in low earth orbit according to the NASA standard breakup model.
IMPORTANT: Until this package reaches version 1.0, the API is subject to change and the accuracy of results cannot be guaranteed.
Installation
To use Kessler, you'll need to have Rust and Cargo installed on your system. You can install Rust and Cargo by following the instructions on the official Rust website:
https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
Once you have Rust and Cargo installed, you can add Kessler to your project by
adding the following line to your Cargo.toml
file:
[dependencies]
kessler = "0.1.0"
Usage
To use Kessler, first import the library in your Rust code:
use kessler::{run, ExplosionEvent, SatKind, Satellite};
fn main() {
// Define the initial position, velocity, mass, characteristic length, and kind of a satellite.
let position = [6.702e6, 0.0, 0.0]; // position vector [m] relative to Earth's center
let velocity = [0.0, 7.666e3, 0.0]; // velocity vector [m/s]
let mass = 4.98e3; // kg
let characteristic_length = 0.1; // m
let sat_kind = SatKind::Rb; // kind of satellite (Rb, Debris, or Satellite)
// Create a new satellite with the given parameters
let satellite = Satellite::new(position, velocity, mass, characteristic_length, sat_kind);
// Create a new explosion event with the satellite
let event = ExplosionEvent::new(satellite);
// Run the simulation with the explosion event
let result = run(&event);
// Print the final state of the satellite after the simulation has completed
println!("{:#?}", result.dim());
}
