Characterization in Dynamic Load Environment of COTS Synthetic Sapphire Bearings for Application in Magnetic Suspension in Space

Characterization in Dynamic Load Environment of COTS Synthetic Sapphire Bearings for Application in Magnetic Suspension in Space

The present research investigates the application of a cardan suspension making use of permanent magnet (PM) bearings employed to obtain high reliable/low-cost solutions for the permanent alignment of directional payloads such as laser reflectors for the Next Generation Lunar Retroreflector (NGLR) e...
