Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Artificial Gravity The production of an inertial force that simulates the effects of a gravitational force, often by rotation, is known as the generation of artificial gravity.Instead of the force experienced in linear acceleration, which, according to the equivalence principle, cannot be differentiated from gravity, artificial gravity, also known as rotational gravity, is the appearance of a centrifugal force in a rotating frame of reference.The term "artificial gravity" may also be used to refer to the impact of linear acceleration, such as that produced by a rocket engine. This is a broader definition of the term.

Book excerpt: From a New York Times bestselling and Hugo award-winning author comes a modern masterwork of science fiction, introducing a captain, his crew, and a detective as they unravel a horrifying solar system wide conspiracy that begins with a single missing girl. Now a Prime Original series. Humanity has colonized the solar system—Mars, the Moon, the Asteroid Belt and beyond—but the stars are still out of our reach. Jim Holden is XO of an ice miner making runs from the rings of Saturn to the mining stations of the Belt. When he and his crew stumble upon a derelict ship, the Scopuli, they find themselves in possession of a secret they never wanted. A secret that someone is willing to kill for—and kill on a scale unfathomable to Jim and his crew. War is brewing in the system unless he can find out who left the ship and why. Detective Miller is looking for a girl. One girl in a system of billions, but her parents have money and money talks. When the trail leads him to the Scopuli and rebel sympathizer Holden, he realizes that this girl may be the key to everything. Holden and Miller must thread the needle between the Earth government, the Outer Planet revolutionaries, and secretive corporations—and the odds are against them. But out in the Belt, the rules are different, and one small ship can change the fate of the universe. "Interplanetary adventure the way it ought to be written." —George R. R.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the year 2074. Amazing advances in technology have allowed the human race to boast achievements far beyond any previously imagined-but all while ignoring the distress of their overtaxed planet. Finally, one fateful day, the Earth can't take any more. One hemisphere suffers from continually melting ice, while the other is crushed by a heavy molten iron volcano scientists believe is erupting from the globe's core. The natural balance we take for granted is thrown off, and the Earth loses gravity. Unthinkable horrors follow. Death, destruction, and chaos abound. Cars are floating, airplanes are crashing, and the atmosphere itself is vaporizing into nothing. Carley, a single mom working at NASA as a janitor, stumbles upon Henry and Linus, two brilliant teenage science prodigies. Together, they hatch a plan to save the planet and stop the destruction. Will the unlikely trio bring gravity back to Earth, or will all be lost forever?

Download or read book Pulling G written by Erik Seedhouse and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-24 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performing in a high G environment is extremely demanding on the body: pulling G forces blood to the body’s extremities, putting the pilot, astronaut or driver at risk of G-Induced Lack of Consciousness (G-LOC). In “Pulling G” Erik Seedhouse describes what it feels like to pull 7 G in a fighter plane and the G pressures on the body when driving a Formula 1 car and many other gravity-defying vehicles. The book relates, for the first time, the effects of G in both hyper-gravity and microgravity. It describes the human response to increased and decreased G and the potentially dangerous effects of high G, with particular reference to dynamic injuries sustained in high acceleration environments. “Pulling G” provides an overview of G-related research and the development of intervention methods to mitigate the effects of increased and reduced G. As well as relating the training required to overcome G-forces on the Formula 1 track, Erik Seedhouse looks at the G forces encountered in such G environments as ejection from an aircraft, launch/re-entry, and zero-G. The book also considers how artificial gravity can be used to prevent bone demineralization and to reduce the effects of de-conditioning in astronauts. Erik Seedhouse is eminently qualified to describe the effects of large accelerations on the body. In addition to being the author of several previously published Springer Praxis books, he has developed astronaut-training protocols and is the training director for Astronauts for Hire (A4H). He is also the Canadian Forces’ High Risk Acceleration Training Officer.
