Controlled pendulum. The gyro spinning wheel is running at constant speed. The precession drive, which lies in a plane symmetric with respect to the gimbal is controlled to create a precession rate of the spinning wheel. Measurement of the rotation angle around the horizontal axis perpendicular to the symmetry plane of the gimbal is used to perform the precession control. This control aims to keep the center of gravity of the gimbal assembly over the rotation axis. The commanded precession rate is such that the gyroscopic torque counterbalances the gravity torque and the disturbing torques...  1, record 5, English, - commanded%20precession%20rate

The Space Acceleration Measurement System-II [SAMS-II] provides an acceleration measurement system serving the needs of microgravity science experiments on ISS [International Space Station]. It provides data supporting experiments that are affected by local accelerations and contributes to the characterization of the ISS environment. The system consists of a control unit(providing control, data recording, analysis and downlink), remote triaxial sensors(measuring experiment-specific locations chosen by the users), and ground operations equipment(serving as the gateway enabling investigators to command and control measurements). Operations are coordinated at the Lewis Telescience Support Center; experiment-specific operating parameters are controlled by science users.  4, record 9, English, - second%20generation%20space%20acceleration%20measurement%20system

End to center measurement or center to end mean the same thing. This is possibly the most common measurement taken by persons working at the plumbing trade. The fitting is generally tightened on the pipe first and then the tape placed so that the desired measurement is in the center of the fitting and a mark is then made at the end of the tape. When the pipe is cut on the mark, the result will be a piece of pipe with an elbow or tee on it and cut to a specified center to end measurement.  1, record 12, English, - center%20to%20end%20measurement
