Inertial dampers

• Internal directed graviton generation used to counter effects of high acceleration, allowing for feasible propulsion at high sublight speeds (Various)
• Interconnected with internal artificial gravity system (TOS Novel: Errand of Vengeance: The Edge of the Sword)
• Necessary only when traveling at sublight velocities, due to non-Newtonian nature of warp travel (TOS Novel: Errand of Vengeance: The Edge of the Sword)
  • Still in operation during warp travel, due to potential for high accelerations within warp bubbles or upon sudden unexpected transition back to sublight
    • Artificial gravity system, including inertial dampers, fully slaved to computer control in Starfleet vessels during warp drive operation as a result (TNG Novel: A Time to Die)
