An important way to improve the dynamical test accuracy of an inertial measurement unit (IMU) is to suppress its vibration. In this paper, the dynamics model of a laser gyro strapdown IMU is developed based on the new version of the transfer matrix method for multibody systems (MSTMM). According to the dynamics model, acceleration responses of the IMU system with and without control are numerically computed under random excitation. The results show that the work situation of the IMU can be significantly improved by adopting magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) isolators, which provides a new technical means of upgrading the output precision of IMU.

The dynamics response optimization of an ultra-precision machine tool system is the key to improve machining accuracy. Based on the transfer matrix method for multibody systems (MSTMM), the dynamics model as multi-rigid-flexible-body system is established. The overall transfer equation, overall transfer matrix, eigenfrequency equation and dynamics equation with respect to generalized coordinates are derived in this paper. Considering the environmental micro-vibration, cutting force and spindle centrifugal force during the machining process as external excitations, the vibration characteristics and dynamics response are simulated by using MSTMM. The computational results are in good agreement with test results, which validates the proposed method and dynamics model used in this paper.

Many real systems such as inertial measurement unit (IMU) in vibration environment, avionic systems in flight tests, half car dynamic model in rid comfortable test and suspension design…etc. can be expressed as Two-inputs-two-outputs (TITO) system for more realistic analysis than single-input-single-output system (SISO); but with more additional complexities. Comparing Transfer Matrix Method for multibody systems (MSTMM) with classical dynamic methods has preferences of modeling flexibility, low order of system matrix, and high computational efficiency, without necessity of deriving the system’s global dynamic equations. The need of combining control strategies with MSTMM becomes an issue of paramount importance due to that a lot of systems are considered as multibody systems, some need control to obtain higher accuracies requirement, vibration isolation treatment, …etc. As a rule of thumb the concept of designing vibration isolator in one field can be applied in many other fields. In this article a generalized TITO model is analyzed using MSTMM to deal with the vibration problem via an active isolator for both vertical translation and pitch responses. Active isolation is applied via Proportional-Integral- Derivative (PID) controller to prove the capability of formulating a relationship between MSTMM and well-known control methodologies to mitigate vibration effects. For verification purpose the analyzed model is verified using data for half car model and standard formulae for road models input excitation test. The achieved results declared that MSTMM can be combined with control techniques without need of special treatments or preconditions for different models with the advantages of MSTMM. This article allows wider developed control applications to use MSTMM simple application for more complex systems models. Dilatation in studying controlled systems using MSTMM provides a possibility for incoming control applications because of the good dealing of MSTMM with the increased complexities of multi-rigid-flexible-body problems.

Transfer Matrix Method for Multibody Systems (MSTMM) has the advantages of no need to establish the global system dynamics equations, low order of the system matrix, high programming, and fast calculation speed compared to the ordinary dynamics methods. In this paper, the topological graph of the dynamics model, transfer equations, transfer matrix of overall system and the simulation program of dynamics of the self-propelled artillery system are established by using the new version of the transfer matrix method for multibody systems and the automatic deduction theorem of overall transfer equation of systems. Realize the rapid calculation of the deviation of the pitch angle and the revolution angles of the turret versus time in the self-propelled artillery. It provides a theoretical basis and simulation means for the dynamics analysis of the self-propelled artillery.
