Default Gravity Machine

I was wondering is there any gravity machine exist or under developing? If it does exist, what theory is about. Can it increase or decrease gravitational force, or even simulate zero gravity environment? How can I get all these info.

I have tried to seach the internet and library, but it's helpless. I knew my questions are a bit more. Please help me to tackle all of them.

THX!!

Hi,
in biological experiments clinostats are used to generate "simulated
microgravity" or "functional weightlessness". Rotating a sample in one or
two axes makes the gravity vector coming from everywhere, so some kind of
weightlessness is simulated (in a small space at the very center of the
sample). A famous device works in Zurich. Google for "Cogoli" (I think
Augusto Cogoli) and "clinostat" and "DLR". There you'll find some
information about these devices. I got also one at the university, but
there's no information available in the net today.
Bye
Sebastian
