Modeling the micro-acceleration field in the protected zone of vibration-proof devices for implementation of gravity-sensitive processes on board a small technological spacecraft

In this paper, models of the micro-acceleration field in the protected zone of various vibration-proof devices are constructed. An automatic rotary platform and a vibration-proof device based on the magnetic principle of operation are considered. Numerical simulation has been carried out for the platform of a small spacecraft of the Aist-2 type. Conclusions are drawn about the possibility of using vibration-proof devices when conducting gravity-sensitive processes on board a technological ICA. The results obtained can be used in the analysis of the satisfaction of conditions for micro-accelerations.
