Struct Shell 

pub struct Shell {
    pub torus: Torus,
    pub altitude_m: f32,
    pub inclination_rad: f32,
}

A Walker Delta constellation shell with physical ISL parameters.

Fields

torus: Torus

The logical toroidal grid topology.

altitude_m: f32

Orbital altitude above Earth’s surface in meters.

inclination_rad: f32

Orbital inclination in radians.

Implementations

impl Shell

pub const fn new(torus: Torus, altitude_m: f32, inclination_deg: f32) -> Self

Creates a new shell from topology, altitude, and inclination (in degrees).

pub fn orbital_radius(&self) -> f32

Returns the orbital radius (Earth radius + altitude) in meters.

pub fn orbital_period_s(&self) -> f32

Returns the orbital period in seconds (Kepler’s third law).

pub fn within_orb_distance(&self) -> f32

Returns the chord distance between adjacent satellites in the same plane.

pub fn cross_orb_base_distance(&self) -> f32

Returns the equatorial chord distance between adjacent orbital planes.

pub fn cross_orb_distance(&self, phase: f32) -> f32

Returns the cross-orbit ISL distance at a given orbital phase (0.0-1.0).

pub fn cross_orb_distance_at_sat(&self, sat: u8) -> f32

Returns the cross-plane ISL distance for a satellite.
