Animating DoF Mechanism on Simulation of a Satellite Trajectory around a Planet in Three Celestial Bodies System by IFS Fractal Model

Abstract

An interesting mechanism of DoF on three celestial bodies system can be simulated and animated by means of animation of non-metamorphic in IFS fractal model. A technique called the shifting centroid technique is used to simplify the complexity of animation method on the DoF mechanism. Another simplification is the use of two kinds of a spiral object as a multi-object to represent the celestial body. The animation to exhibit the satellite trajectory in the system can be accomplished by means of the partitioned-random iteration algorithm
