SELF-MADE TRI-AXIAL ACCELEROMETER DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR VALIDATION OF SIMULTANEOUS MULTI AXIS ACCELEROMETER CALIBRATION SYSTEM

C. S. Veldman
Abstract:
This paper describes geometric design consideration for the creation (manufacture) of a tri-axial accelerometer intended for the validation of multi axis calibration systems that implements simultaneous axis calibration methods. Two mounting geometries were investigated, and the results obtained using them are reported. The one configuration, a cube with counterweights. The second configuration see the accelerometers mounted on “recessed” faces, aiming at placing (aligning) the individual accelerometers close to the vibration excitation vector.
