  2. Corrosion loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrosion_loop

    Both terms “RBI Corrosion loops” or “RBI corrosion circuits” are generic terms used to indicate the systematization of piping systems into usable and understandable parts associated with corrosion. Systematized piping loops or circuits are systems used in Risk Based Inspection analysis to assess the likelihood and consequence of failure.

  3. Risk-based inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk-based_inspection

    RBI assists a company to select cost effective and appropriate maintenance and inspection tasks and techniques, to minimize efforts and cost, to shift from a reactive to a proactive maintenance regime, to produce an auditable system, to give an agreed-upon operating window, and to implement a risk management tool. The purposes of RBI include:

  4. Hemispherical resonator gyroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemispherical_resonator...

    The hemispherical resonator gyroscope (HRG), also called wine-glass gyroscope or mushroom gyro, is a compact, low-noise, high-performance angular rate or rotation sensor. An HRG is made using a thin solid-state hemispherical shell, anchored by a thick stem.

  5. Attitude and heading reference system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attitude_and_heading...

    Garmin G1000 Primary Flight Display. An attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) consists of sensors on three axes that provide attitude information for aircraft, including roll, pitch, and yaw.

  6. Gyroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroscope

    Diagram of a gyro wheel. Reaction arrows about the output axis (blue) correspond to forces applied about the input axis (green), and vice versa. A gyroscope is an instrument, consisting of a wheel mounted into two or three gimbals providing pivoted supports, for allowing the wheel to rotate about a single axis. A set of three gimbals, one ...

  7. Vibrating structure gyroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibrating_structure_gyroscope

    Consider two proof masses vibrating in plane (as in the MEMS gyro) at frequency . The Coriolis effect induces an acceleration on the proof masses equal to a c = 2 ( Ω × v ) {\displaystyle a_{\mathrm {c} }=2(\Omega \times v)} , where v {\displaystyle v} is a velocity and Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } is an angular rate of rotation.

  8. Rate gyro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_gyro

    A rate gyro is a type of gyroscope, which rather than indicating direction, indicates the rate of change of angle with time.If a gyro has only one gimbal ring, with consequently only one plane of freedom, it can be adapted for use as a rate gyro to measure a rate of angular movement.

  9. Yaw-rate sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaw-rate_sensor

    There are two types of yaw-rate sensors: piezoelectric and micromechanical. In the piezoelectric type, the sensor is a tuning fork-shaped structure with four piezoelectric elements, two on top and two below.
