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.

Abstract The mixed method of Transfer Matrix Method for Multibody System (MSTMM) and Finite Element Method (FEM) is introduced in this paper. The transfer matrix and transfer equation of multi-rigid-body subsystem are deduced by MSTMM. The mass matrix and stiffness matrix of flexible subsystem are calculated by FEM and then its dynamics equation is established. The connection point relations among subsystems are deduced and the overall transfer matrix and transfer equation of multi-rigid-flexible system are established. The vibration characteristics of the system are obtained by solving the system frequency equation. The computational results of two numerical examples show that the proposed method have good agreements with MSTMM and FEM. Multi-rigid-flexible-body system with multi-end beam can be solved by proposed method, which extends the application field of MSTMM and provides a theoretical basis for calculating complex systems with multi input end flexible bodies of arbitrary shape.

Riccati transfer matrix method for multibody systems (RMSTMM) has lower matrix order and better numerical stability than transfer matrix method for multibody systems (MSTMM). In order to make technicians more convenient to apply RMSTMM in practical engineering to improve the computational efficiency of dynamics, in this paper, a linear RMSTMM solver is developed based on the linear RMSTMM theory. A solver input document with good compatibility and extensibility is designed based on extensible markup language (XML); The data structure of multibody system is designed based on object-oriented programming method. The technique of auto selecting the cut hinges of closed-loops of the multibody system is established by introducing the correlation matrix and the dynamic connectivity matrix which depict the connecting state of elements. The automatic generation of the derived tree system by cutting off the closed-loops in the multibody system is realized based on the technique. The automatic regularly numbering of dynamics elements of multibody systems is realized based on the depth first recursive traversal algorithm; Finally, the Riccati transfer matrix recursive technique is implemented based on the regular numbers of dynamics elements of the multibody system. An example is given to verify the effectiveness of the solver which provides a powerful tool for extending the application of RMSTMM in practical engineering.

The transfer matrix method for multibody systems has been developed for 20 years and improved constantly. The new version of transfer matrix method for multibody system and the automatic deduction method of overall transfer equation presented in recent years make it more convenient of the method for engineering application. In this article, by first defining branch subsystem, any complex multibody system may be regarded as the assembling of branch subsystems and simple chain subsystems. If there are closed loops in the system, the loops should be “cut off,” thus a pair of “new boundaries” are generated at each “cutting-off” point. The relationship between the state vectors of the pair of “new boundaries” may be described by a supplement equation. Based on above work, the automatic deduction method of overall transfer equation for tree systems as well as closed-loop-and-branch-mixed systems is formed. The results of numerical examples obtained by the automatic deduction method and ADAMS software for tree system dynamics as well as mixed system dynamics have good agreements, which validate the features of proposed method such as high computational speed, more effective for complex systems, no need of the system global dynamics equation, highly programmable, as well as convenient popularization and application in engineering.
