Science and the Instrument-maker: Michelson, Sperry, and the Speed of Light. Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology, number 37, 18 pages, 9 figures, 2 tables, 1976.-This essay focuses on the cooperative efforts between A. A. Michelson, physicist, and Elmer Ambrose Sperry, inventor, to produce the instr.umentation for the determination of the speed of light. At the conclusion of experiments made in 1926, Michelson assigned the Sperry in­ struments the highest marks for accuracy. The value of the speed of light accepted by many today (299,792.5 km/sec) varies only 2.5 km/sec from that obtained using the Sperry octagonal steel mirror. The main problems of producing the instrumentation, human error in the communication of ideas to effect that in­ strumentation, a brief description of the experiments to determine the speed of light, and the analysis and evaluation of the results are discussed.

  • 3D Rigid Body Dynamics: Tops and Gyroscopes
    J. Peraire, S. Widnall 16.07 Dynamics Fall 2008 Version 2.0 Lecture L30 - 3D Rigid Body Dynamics: Tops and Gyroscopes 3D Rigid Body Dynamics: Euler Equations in Euler Angles In lecture 29, we introduced the Euler angles as a framework for formulating and solving the equations for conservation of angular momentum. We applied this framework to the free-body motion of a symmetrical body whose angular momentum vector was not aligned with a principal axis. The angular moment was however constant. We now apply Euler angles and Euler’s equations to a slightly more general case, a top or gyroscope in the presence of gravity. We consider a top rotating about a fixed point O on a flat plane in the presence of gravity. Unlike our previous example of free-body motion, the angular momentum vector is not aligned with the Z axis, but precesses about the Z axis due to the applied moment. Whether we take the origin at the center of mass G or the fixed point O, the applied moment about the x axis is Mx = MgzGsinθ, where zG is the distance to the center of mass.. Initially, we shall not assume steady motion, but will develop Euler’s equations in the Euler angle variables ψ (spin), φ (precession) and θ (nutation). 1 Referring to the figure showing the Euler angles, and referring to our study of free-body motion, we have the following relationships between the angular velocities along the x, y, z axes and the time rate of change of the Euler angles. The angular velocity vectors for θ˙, φ˙ and ψ˙ are shown in the figure.

  • Chapter 7 – Autopilot Models for Course and Heading Control
    Chapter 7 – Autopilot Models for Course and Heading Control 7.1 Autopilot Models for Course Control 7.2 Autopilot Models for Heading Control Automatic pilot, “also called autopilot, or autohelmsman, device for controlling an aircraft or other vehicle without constant human intervention.” Ref. Encyclopedia Britannica The first aircraft autopilot was developed by Sperry Corporation in 1912. It permitted the aircraft to fly straight and level on a compass course without a pilot's attention, greatly reducing the pilot's workload. Elmer Ambrose Sperry, Sr. (1860–1930) Lawrence Sperry (the son of famous inventor Elmer Sperry) demonstrated it in 1914 at an aviation safety contest held in Paris. Sperry demonstrated the credibility of the invention by flying the aircraft with his hands away from the controls. He was killed in 1923 when his aircraft crashed in the English channel. In the early 1920s, the Standard Oil tanker J.A. Moffet became the first ship to use an autopilot. Ref.

  • Basic Instruments Introduction Instruments Mechanically Measure Physical Quantities Or Properties with Varying Degrees of Accuracy
    Chapter 3 Basic Instruments Introduction Instruments mechanically measure physical quantities or properties with varying degrees of accuracy. Much of a navigator’s work consists of applying corrections to the indications of various instruments and interpreting the results. Therefore, navigators must be familiar with the capabilities and limitations of the instruments available to them. A navigator obtains the following flight information from basic instruments: direction, altitude, temperature, airspeed, drift, and groundspeed (GS). Some of the basic instruments are discussed in this chapter. The more complex instruments that make accurate and long distance navigation possible are discussed in later chapters. 3-1 Direction The force of the magnetic field of the earth can be divided into two components: the vertical and the horizontal. The Basic Instruments relative intensity of these two components varies over the The navigator must have a fundamental background in earth so that, at the magnetic poles, the vertical component navigation to ensure accurate positioning of the aircraft. Dead is at maximum strength and the horizontal component is reckoning (DR) procedures aided by basic instruments give minimum strength. At approximately the midpoint between the navigator the tools to solve the three basic problems of the poles, the horizontal component is at maximum strength navigation: position of the aircraft, direction to destination, and the vertical component is at minimum strength. Only and time of arrival. Using only a basic instrument, such as the the horizontal component is used as a directive force for a compass and drift information, you can navigate directly to magnetic compass. Therefore, a magnetic compass loses its any place in the world.

  • GYROCOMPASS CMZ 900 Series
    GYROCOMPASS CMZ 900 series Bulletin 80B10M09E 2nd Edition CMZ 900 GYROCOMPASS is highly reliable and long life. CONTROL BOX (MKC 326/327) MASTER COMPASS (MKM 026) A gyrocompass detects the true north by means of a fast-spinning rotor, which is suspended with no friction and is influenced by gravity and rotation of the Earth. A gyrocompass consequently indicates a ship's heading. CMZ 900 series has been type approved in accordance with International Maritime Organization (IMO) standards, resolution A.424(XI) as well as JIS-F9602, class A standards. FEATURES -A modular design saves the space. MASTER COMPASS can be integrated in the autopilot steering stand. -Manual and automatic speed error correction -External heading sensor can back up the heading outputs. -Serial data output IEC 61162-2 (high-speed transmission) -An unique anti-vibration mechanism enhanced by the velocity damping effect of high viscous oil, provides superior damping of vibration and decoupling of shock at sea. -A small and lightweight container enhances the follow up speed. The gyrocompass reading changes smoothly and does not lag when a small ship rapidly changes course. -Easy maintenance and long maintenance periods Titanium capsule and electrodes are employed for GYROSPHERE. Purity is maintained inside of the container, and maintenance interval is then longer-dated. The container is divided into two pieces at bottom when overhauled. Ship's crew can replace GYROSPHERE in case of emergency. Easy maintenance Titanium capsule PERFORMANCE and electrodes SPECIFICATIONS (lower hemisphere) -Accuracy: Static:±0.25° x sec Lat. Dynamic:±0.75° x sec Lat. -Settling time:Within 5 hours -Follow up accuracy:0.1° or less -Max.

The purpose of this report is to offer engineers and scientists a listing of books which are readily available from commercial sources, as well as from various documentation centers and libraries. Only books which were unclassified and unrestricted were considered for this bibliographical listing. This list is a comprehensive tabulation of works by engineers and scientists in the various NATO nations. It also includes some Russian texts on the subject, many of which have been translated into English. It is believed that this list will contribute to broaden the knowledge and prevent a duplication of research in the field of gyroscopes. C.T.Leondes Professor iii ABBREVIATIONS Appl. Mech. Rev.
