Marijn van Dijk developed configuration-driven satellite mass parameter support and reproducible demo setups for the FormingWorlds/PROTEUS repository, focusing on backend development and simulation setup. Using Python and TOML, Marijn integrated a new Msat configuration option into the update_satellite calculations, enabling precise control over satellite parameters in orbital mechanics simulations. The work included fixes to the update_satellite return path and expanded helpfile keys, improving reliability and usability. Marijn also created ready-to-run TOML demo files for planetary and stellar simulations, allowing stakeholders to perform reproducible experiments. The contributions reflect a deep understanding of configuration management and scientific simulation workflows.
