Z-Axis Micromachined Tuning Fork Gyroscope with Low Air Damping
This paper reports on the design and fabrication of a z-axis tuning fork gyroscope which has a freestanding architecture. In order to improve the performance of the tuning fork gyroscope by eliminating the influence of the squeeze-film air damping, the driving and sensing parts of the gyroscope were designed to oscillate in-plane. Furthermore, by removing the substrate underneath the device, th...
متن کاملThermoelastic Damping in Flexural-mode Ring Gyroscopes
This paper provides a comprehensive derivation for thermoelastic damping (TED) in flexural-mode ring gyroscopes, in light of recent efforts to design high rateresolution gyroscopes. Imposing an upper limit on the attainable mechanical noise floor of a vibratory gyroscope, thermoelastic damping in a ring gyroscope is extracted from the equations of linear thermoelasticity. By assuming that it is...
متن کاملThermoelastic damping in micro- and nanomechanical systems
The importance of thermoelastic damping as a fundamental dissipation mechanism for small-scale mechanical resonators is evaluated in light of recent efforts to design high-Q micrometerand nanometer-scale electromechanical systems. The equations of linear thermoelasticity are used to give a simple derivation for thermoelastic damping of small flexural vibrations in thin beams. It is shown that Z...
متن کاملThermoelastic Damping of Inextensional Hemispherical Shell
In this work, thermoelastic damping effect on the hemispherical shells is investigated. The material is selected silicon, and heat conduction equation for thermal flow is solved to obtain the temperature profile in which bending approximation with inextensional assumption of the model. Using the temperature profile, eigen-value analysis is performed to get the natural frequencies of hemispheric...
