Publisher review:Low Thrust Transfer from Earth to Mars - Numerical model of an ion engine completing a transfer from Earth to Mars This spacecraft begins in a GTO and spirals out of Earth's SOI, then orbits around the sun and spirals in to Mars. This model uses ODE23 to integrate a 4-body gravitational model including a forcing function.
The engine has an Isp of 3000 sec and a thrust of 200 mN. This was basically a code I wrote for a paper for my spaceflight dynamics class and I figured I'd share Requirements: ยท MATLAB Release: R13
Low Thrust Transfer from Earth to Mars is a Matlab script for Astronomy/Aerospace scripts design by Richard Rieber.
It runs on following operating system: Windows / Linux / Mac OS / BSD / Solaris.
