Description Usage Arguments Details Value

Calculate the "severity loss of Well Clear" (SLoWC) metric, described in RTCA SC-228 Closed-Loop Metrics White Paper.

1	calculateSLoWC(trajectory1, trajectory2)

`trajectory1`	A `flighttrajectory` object corresponding to the first aircraft.
`trajectory2`	A `flighttrajectory` object corresponding to the second aircraft.

Note that the RTCA definition of Well Clear is undergoing revision. This code is based on the SLoWC formulation by Ethan Pratt and Jacob Kay as implemented in a MATLAB script by Ethan Pratt dated 2016-04-18.

The numeric vector giving the SLoWC metric. Values lie in the range [0, 100]. A SLoWC of 0 indicates Well Clear, while a value of 100 corresponds to "full penetration" (i.e., a collision).
