BRYAN’S EFFECT AND NONLINEAR DAMPING

I. INTRODUCTION

If a node of vibration is marked on an annular plate (see Fig. 1) by aspot of paint and then a small inertial rotation rate occurs aboutthe -axis, the node will be seen to move away from the spot. Thiseffect was first observed in 1890 by G.H. Bryan [1] who calculated:

Rate of rotation of the vibrating pattern = (1)

Consequently, if an ideal vibratory gyroscope is fixed inside a vehicle,the rate of rotation of the vibrating pattern (observed within thevehicle) may be used to determine the inertial rotation rate, onceBryan’s factor is known [2]. Referring to Fig. 1 where we use a

Fig. 1. The radial and tangential displacements and (from rest position ) respectively of a point mass in the plate.

polar coordinate system, we assume that the displacements satisfy:

( ) = () [ () cos+ () sin] (2)( ) = () [ () sin () cos] (3)

where is the circumferential wave number, () and () deter-mine the principal () and quadrature () vibration amplitudesand () and () are eigenfunctions associated with an eigenvalue of the vibration pattern.

II.DAMPING

Any anisotropic vibration damping causes a departure from the idealdistribution and therefore affects resonator dynamics. It can be shown,as was done for a sphere in [2], that the Lagrangian

= (2 + 2)0 + 2 ( )1 2 + 2

where 01 and 2 are constants determined by indefinite inte-grals of and , density and Young’s modulus We in-troduce anisotropic linear, quadratic, cubic, quartic damping with = 1 2 3 4 respectively into the equations of motion using theLagrange-Euler equations:

where = 0 1 if is odd, even respectively and the modifiedRayleigh dissipation function is

where the light damping coefficient () is the sum of itsFourier series zeroth, 2 and 4 harmonics:

() = 0 + 2 cos 2+ 2 sin 2

+ 4 cos 4+ 4 sin 4 (8)

As explained in [2], regard () as the “cosine” and () asthe “sine” output of a vibratory gyroscope connected to a two-channel oscilloscope. Then the Lissajous figure produced on theoscilloscope screen will resemble the precessing, shrinking, ellipse-like orbit depicted in Fig. 2. Using the methods of [2], we obtain,

Fig. 2. () is the amplitude of the principal vibration, () is the amplitudeof the quadrature vibration, Θ() is the rotation angle of the mth modevibration pattern (the precession angle), () is a phase angle and = 2where is an eigenfrequency of the vibration pattern

for instance, the following good approximate equations of motion forcubic damping:

with

30 30 etc. and

2= 32 cos 2 + 32 sin 2 (13)

4 = 34 cos 4 + 34 sin 4 (14)

Evidently isotropic damping (30) affects only and whereasanisotropic damping causes changes in all four variables as well asyielding different decay rates for and . Equation (11) confirmsBryan’s Equation (1) for the ideal case and shows that the precessionrate Θ deviates from the ideal situation when anisotropic dampingis present, as demonstrated by a numerical experiment conductedwith MATHEMATICA0 NDSolve routine that resulted in Fig. 3 Inorder to eliminate anisotropic damping (but not necessarily nonlineardamping) materials with a high Q-factor must be used.

Fig. 3. The blue and black curves represent the change with time of theprecession angle Θ for cubic and quartic anisotropic damping respectivelythat show significant deviation from the ideal situation, that is, the solid purpleline Θ = while the green and red wavy curves (superimposed uponthe purple line) represent Θ for linear and quadratic anisotropic dampingrespectively.
