My name is Ramiro Molinari, I am a mechanical engineering student at the Faculty of Exact Sciences, Engineering and Surveying (FCEIA) of the National University of Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina (UNR): https://web.fceia.unr.edu.ar/es/This is a practical work for the subject M-25 Synthesis of Mechanisms and Machines, directed by Professor Marcelo Valderrey , and corresponds to the edition of this subject taken during the first quarter of 2024.It is a work based on the tutorial Conceptual Design Challenge: Artificial Gravity for Human Colonies on the Moon and MarsG-3PO is an alternative to the lack of gravitational field on the lunar and Martian surface that aims to be combined with my alternative for the logistics module: R2D2-RM. G-3PO intends to use already discovered technology to establish itself as a reliable and feasible alternative. Its essence lies in the centrifugal force generated by a rotating platform, with an arm that provides a turning radius of 58 meters, rotating at about 4 rpm to achieve the desired effect at the habitat's center of mass. I would like to specially mention and thank Marcelo Valderrey and Augustine Uyah for allowing the use of their ideas and models, as without them, G-3PO would not be possible.
