Gyropendulum and vibration forces – experimental research

Abstract

It is well-known that gyroscope base vibration as usual has a bad influence on accuracy of gyroscopic instruments and systems. During running and testing gyroscopic instruments are exposed to translational vibration, the accuracy and reliability are reducing. With rising demands on the accuracy and reliability of the gyropendulum systems, the problem of finding effects of vibration methods of research base and the possible ways to fix it remains relevant. The purpose of this paper is to present the results of experimental research of vibration influence on the gyropendulum, by using new term “vibration force”. Two main regimes were tested: upwards and down displaced centre of mass of gyropendulum.
