ETMY phase 3b measurements

Phase 3b spectra (in chamber, in vacuum) was taken last week and has been processed today. During the measurement, HEPI was floating, and ISI was isolated with level 3 and blends at "start".
Also, I plotted a comparison of ETMX and ETMY main chain and reaction chain top mass transfer functions for the 6 DOF, from last week's measurement.

SPECTRA

1) ETMy / ETMx spectra comparison SUS damping off
2) ETMy / ETMx spectra comparison SUS damping on
3) ETMy main chain damping on / damping off comparison
4) ETMy reaction chain damping on / damping off comparison

Spectra look good. Only F2 osem of ETMY main chain has an unexpected sharp peak at ~30Hz (can be seen on 4 pdfs). ETMy amplitude is higher than ETMx due to the ISI state being different. Reaction chain Vertical and Yaw damping could be improved looking at the comparison damping on/off

TRANSFER FUNCTIONS

4) ETMx / ETMy M0-M0 and R0-R0 TF comparison damping OFF
5) ETMx / ETMy M0-M0 and R0-R0 TF comparison damping ON

Again, TFs look good and results of ETMy are matching the ones from ETMx, except for Pitch which has its second mode (1.33Hz) shifted down for ETMx
