Abstract: This study investigates the dynamics of a gyroscope rotor, supported on a “heavy” elastic suspension, using a mathematical model which allows the gyroscope to be treated as a two-degree-of-freedom ...

Abstract: The paper shows that the ideally tuned Hooke’s joint gyroscope is capable of operating as a gyrocompass. The dynamic response of the compass is examined in detail and its accuracy as a ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the dynamics of a novel “multisensor” comprising a two-axis gyroscope and a single-axis linear accelerometer. The theoretical analysis indicates that the gyroscope has two ...
