Artificial gravity (sometimes referred to as pseudogravity) is the creation of an inertial force that mimics the effects of a gravitational force, usually by rotation. Artificial gravity, or rotational gravity, is thus the appearance of a centrifugal force in a rotating frame of reference (the transmission of centripetal acceleration via normal force in the non-rotating frame of reference), as opposed to the force experienced in linear acceleration, which by the equivalence principle is indistinguishable from gravity. In a more general sense, "artificial gravity" may also refer to the effect of linear acceleration, e.g. by means of a rocket engine.

Systems and methods for providing a hybrid gravity environment
ActiveUS12576995B1Cosmonautic environmental control arrangementCosmonautic vehiclesRotational axisRotational joint
The present disclosure provides an apparatus comprising a first outer ring module and a second outer ring module configured to produce artificial gravity environments when revolved about a rotational axis. At least one circumferential access tube may connect the first and second outer ring modules. A central hub may be connected to the first and second outer ring modules via first and second radial access tubes, respectively. A microgravity module may be located coaxial with the rotational axis and connected to the central hub via a rotary union. The apparatus may enable simultaneous provision of artificial gravity and microgravity environments within a single space vehicle structure, allowing for diverse research, manufacturing, and habitation capabilities in space.

Two-axis spin coating method and apparatus
A modified technology of spin coating which is named Two-Axis spin coating is disclosed. The innovative Two-Axis spin coating apparatus is a rotary device that spins the substrate horizontally the same as conventional spin coaters while the whole horizontal spinning system can be rotated vertically. The vertical rotation of the substrate generates a vertical centrifugal force perpendicular to the surface of the substrate which allows the coating face with an elevated artificial gravity acceleration. The elevation of gravity acceleration adjusts and normalizes the local high and low surface tension stresses on the surface of the coated film. This elevation of gravity also increases the weight of coating elements artificially and obliges the wavy surface convex regions to flow toward the concave areas. The elevation of gravity also obliges the lighter probable air bubbles inside the layer, immediately before the coating surface skinning process, move toward the surface and drain out from the layer. The invention provides a method to level the layer's edge beads, level the coated surface, drain out probable micro sized air bubbles inside the layer and form denser film simultaneously.
