Some effects of vibration and rotation on the drift of gyroscopic instruments
It is the purpose of this paper to describe and indicate possible analytical approaches to some of the most significant mechanisms by which vibration induced drifts may occur, and to indicate, where possible, some means of alleviating them. In all cases we will not consider gimbal bearing friction, mass unbalance or other sources of steady extraneous torques on the gyro rotor. The mechanisms to be discussed are: Non-Newtonian viscosity in single degree of freedom (SDF) integrating-rate gyros, nonisoelasticity in SDF gyros, noncommutative effects for SDF stabilized platform, gimbal inertia effects, 2 DF gyros, and spin axis torque coupling in 2 DF gyros. High-frequency elastic resonances are not discussed explicitly in detail, because they are a more familiar problem and one which depends strongly on the details of each particular gyro design.
