Analysis on Node Position of Imperfect Resonators for Cylindrical Shell Gyroscopes

For cylindrical shell gyroscopes, node position of their operating eigenmodes has an important influence on the gyroscopes’ performance. It is considered that the nodes are equally separated from each other by 90° when the resonator vibrates in the standing wave eigenmode. However, we found that, du...
