  • Abstract
    A mathematical theory for a vibratory rate-of-turn measuring device is developed in order to bring out the more important characteristics. By using properties of Mathieu´s equation it is shown how performance depends on the parameters of the system, particularly the resonant frequency and damping factor of the torsion mechanism. These results are compared with those obtained from the more simplified theory.
