Summary

Description
English: Circumpolar geodesic on a triaxial ellipsoid, case A. Vital statistics: a : b : c = 1.01:1:0.8, β 1 = 45.1°, ω 1 = 0°, α 1 = 90°, s 12 / b ∈ [−321.9, 321.9], orthographic projection from φ = 40°, λ = 30°. The geodesic is found by solving the ordinary differential equations for the free motion of a particle constrained to the surface of the ellipsoid; the solution is carried out in Cartesian coordinates.
