Thrust? as in gravity pull under accel? momentum (kg.m/s)? data based on what exactly? If you know. Not that I care to know, just curious

I'm no engineer, but in this reference I think that "thrust" is referring to motion perpendicular to the axis of rotation.
I would not expect a lot of force in that direction on the IMS, but a slight oscillation at high RPM over time could wear a roller style much more than a spherical ball. ...?
