Introduction to Spacecraft Dynamics book

Introduction

Welcome to SpacecraftDynamics repository! 👋

This educational resource was built with to support the study of EMS515U: Introduction to Spacecraft Dynamics at the School of Engineering and Material Sciences within Queen Mary, University of London.

This project is a collection of modules aimed at undergraduate engineering students. Each module makes up separate lessons that are accompanied by computational problem-solving tutorials written as Jupyter notebooks (Python 🐍). This aims to develop the students' skills in 21^st century computing by framing engineering problems as computational methods.

How to create this Jupyter Book

Creating an environment

1. conda env create -f environment.yml
2. conda activate spacecraft-dynamics

Building a Jupyter Book

Run the following command in your terminal: jb build ..

If you would like to work with a clean build, you can empty the build folder by running jb clean .. If the jupyter execution is cached, this command will not delete the cached folder. To remove the build folder, you can run jb clean --all ..

Publishing this Jupyter Book

Run ghp-import -n -p -f _build/html
