Wasn't sure exactly what the title of this post should be.
Working on a side project using machine learning and the solar system (using n-body simulator).
Let's say I have two bodies with coordinates:
Body1: x=-1.42790218981 y=1.4003882805 z=0.0
Body2: x=0.983274588755 y=0.0477301860159 z=0.0...
@Leonarte I'll implement RK4 and report back. Yeah plenty of ODEs. The library uses IAS15 15th order integrator but that might take some time to implement.
@TurtleMeister for each step
# Calculate drift phase of symplectic
for b in self.bodies:
b.x += 0.5 * dt * b.vx...
Hey guys!
Working on a side project using machine learning and n-body simulations. I could just use the library Rebound (http://rebound.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) but I decided to first try building my own simulator before taking shortcuts.
Simulation uses the masses of the bodies (from Sun...
