Numerical Validation of the Delaunay Normalization and the Krylov-Bogoliubov-Mitropolsky Method

الملخص EN

A scalable second-order analytical orbit propagator programme based on modern and classical perturbation methods is being developed.

As a first step in the validation and verification of part of our orbit propagator programme, we only consider the perturbation produced by zonal harmonic coefficients in the Earth’s gravity potential, so that it is possible to analyze the behaviour of the mathematical expressions involved in Delaunay normalization and the Krylov-Bogoliubov-Mitropolsky method in depth and determine their limits.
