Refinement of the approximation of celestial bodies' gravitational field using polyhedra
The polyhedral method is an effective computational approach to the approximation of the gravitational potential and attraction of an irregularly shaped body. Refinement of the approximation by means of the piecewise continuous interpolation of body's surface via Bézier patches is proposed.
