The hemispherical resonator gyroscope (HRG), also called a wine-glass gyroscope [52] or mushroom gyro, makes use of a thin solid-state hemispherical shell, anchored by a thick stem. This shell is driven to a flexural resonance by electrostatic forces generated by electrodes which are deposited directly onto separate fused-quartz structures that ...
Ludwig Obry's gyroscopic mechanism for steering a Whitehead torpedo, called the "Obry Gear" by the US Navy. Ludwig Obry was an Austrian engineer [1] and naval officer of the Austrian Navy [2] who invented a gyroscopic device for steering a torpedo in 1895.
Foucault published two papers in 1852, one focused on astronomy with the weight free to move on all three axes (On a new experimental demonstration of the motion of the Earth, based on the fixity of the plane of rotation) [8] and the other on mechanics with the weight free to move on only two axes (On the orientation phenomena of rotating bodies driven by a fixed axis on the Earth's surface.
Hague and Williams ventured outside and replaced the Rate Gyro Assembly Gyroscope 2 on the S0 Truss, replaced the retro reflectors on IDA 3, installed shields on NICER to patch holes in the light shades, relocated the C2V2 cables out of the way so the astronauts and Canadarm 2 could access the worksite, tested a tool on the AMS jumpers, and photographed the AMS jumpers so they can be de-mated ...
The hemispherical resonator gyroscope (HRG), also called wine-glass gyroscope or mushroom gyro, is a compact, low-noise, high-performance angular rate or rotation sensor. An HRG is made using a thin solid-state hemispherical shell, anchored by a thick stem.
In Bill Gates' new autobiography, "Source Code: My Beginnings" (published February 4 by Knopf), the computer pioneer and philanthropist writes of his formative years, and the experiences that led ...
A ring laser gyroscope (RLG) consists of a ring laser having two independent counter-propagating resonant modes over the same path; the difference in phase is used to detect rotation. It operates on the principle of the Sagnac effect which shifts the nulls of the internal standing wave pattern in response to angular rotation.
The couple, who met through their mutual powerlifting coach, got engaged on Jan. 24 during a trip to Sheffield, England. Degier says the two had talked a lot about marriage before and both "wanted ...
