May 1, 2025May 2025 - FreyavanApeldoorn/DSE-26: Delivered Battery Mass Estimation Enhancements to improve energy planning accuracy and system safety. Implemented a robust quadratic battery power estimation pathway with checks for negative discriminants and a reliable fallback, along with a new computeRequiredBatteryMass function that calculates required battery mass from energy requirements, depth of discharge, efficiency, and maximum battery fraction. Added comprehensive error handling for impossible energy inputs. These changes reduce mass estimation risk, support mission viability, and enable more efficient system sizing.
