GENOPUS is a software library including widgets, written in Java by using GENIUS product and corresponding to flight dynamics objects available via PATRIUS library. So, for example, we could find widgets allowing to:

  • Entry of a date with timescale and conversions.
  • Entry of orbit definition (date, frame, parameters) and conversions.
  • Entry of impulsive maneuver, continuous thrust maneuver or a sequence of maneuvers combining both types.
  • Entry of attitude laws individually or via a sequence of laws.
  • Entry of orbital events (eclipse …).
  • Entry of vehicle characteristics,
  • Entry of force models (potential, atmosphere, solar pressure radiation …).

Thus, this library allows getting very quickly complex flight dynamics widgets directly linked to [PATRIUS] objects.

GENOPUS is provided as Open Source under license Apache 2.0. JavaDoc is accessible via this site.

As it is coded in Java, this product is available for any kind of platforms owning Java. But, of course, it needs GENIUS and PATRIUS products.

GENOPUS is now internally used by CNES for most of expertise tools (for example, PSIMU) as for other tools with a more operational role as ELECTRA.
