A procedure was developed for the simulation of the launch and reentry acceleration profiles of the Space Shuttle (3.3 and 1.7 g maximum, respectively) and of two versions of NASA's proposed materials research Reusable Reentry Satellite (RRS) (8 and 4 g maximum, respectively). With a 7-m centrifuge, the time dependence of five different acceleration episodes was simulated for payload masses up to 59 kg. Test results obtained for the Materials Dispersion Apparatus, a commercial low-cost payload device, are presented.
