Nomenclature, Units and Reference Frames

Several standard typographical and variable name conventions are used within this Wiki and corresponding software and models:

Typographical Conventions

tItalicScalar
aLowercase BoldVector
AUppercase BoldMatrix

Units

All models and software are presented in SI Units (whether base, or derived), unless specified otherwise.

Note: It is critical to ensure your units are consistent and understood by everyone when working in the realm of GNC. SI Units are industry standard, even in the USA, and really no other unit sets should be used in GNC (in my humble opinion).
