Northrop Grumman Corporation is interested in developing an angular rate sensor through MEMS technology, a method that will greatly reduce costs while allowing the devices to be used in applications previously subject to budget, size, or technology constraints. Our Clinic team, as a continuation of the 2002\/03 Clinic project, has designed and characterized the performance of a vibrating beam angular rate sensor which takes advantage of piezoelectric materials as driving and sensing mechanisms.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems, Navigation Systems Division Physics, 2003-04 Liaison(s): Robert Stewart, Ken Marino Advisor(s): Peter Saeta Students(s): Hubert Nguyen [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[161],"tags":[504],"class_list":["post-12729","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-physics","tag-northrop-grumman-electronic-systems-navigation-systems-division"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12729","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12729"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12729\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12729"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12729"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12729"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
