Computational engineeringComputational Engineering is an emerging discipline that deals with the development and application of computational models for engineering, known as Computational Engineering Models or CEM. At this time, various different approaches are summarized under the term Computational Engineering, including using computational geometry and virtual design for engineering tasks, often coupled with a simulation-driven approach In Computational Engineering, algorithms solve mathematical and logical models that describe engineering challenges, sometimes coupled with some aspect of AI, specifically Reinforcement Learning.
ApsideLes apsides (nom féminin) sont les deux points extrêmes de l'orbite d'un corps céleste, pour lesquels la distance au corps attracteur (plus exactement, au centre de masse des deux corps) est : soit minimale (apside inférieure, périapside ou périapse) ; soit maximale (apside supérieure, apoapside ou apoapse). Le mot s'emploie plus rarement au singulier pour désigner l'un ou l'autre des deux points. La ligne droite reliant le périapside et l'apoapside d'une orbite donnée est la ligne des apsides ou ligne apsidiale.
Orbite de rebutNOTOC Une orbite de rebut, parfois appelée orbite-poubelle ou orbite cimetière dans le domaine de l'astronautique, est l'orbite sur laquelle est transféré un satellite en fin de vie active. Les termes correspondants en anglais sont graveyard orbit, et disposal orbit. Les satellites de télécommunication, en orbite géostationnaire, utilisent le reliquat du carburant destiné à les maintenir en poste pour rejoindre leur orbite de rebut qui est supérieure (de 230 kilomètres) à leur orbite nominale.
Inverse scattering transformIn mathematics, the inverse scattering transform is a method for solving some non-linear partial differential equations. The method is a non-linear analogue, and in some sense generalization, of the Fourier transform, which itself is applied to solve many linear partial differential equations. The name "inverse scattering method" comes from the key idea of recovering the time evolution of a potential from the time evolution of its scattering data: inverse scattering refers to the problem of recovering a potential from its scattering matrix, as opposed to the direct scattering problem of finding the scattering matrix from the potential.
