ABSTRACT
A gyroscope (from Ancient Greek γῦρος gûros, "circle" and
σκοπέω skopéō, "to look") is a device used for measuring or
maintaining orientation and angular velocity. It is a spinning wheel or
disc in which the axis of rotation (spin axis) is free to assume any
orientation by itself. When rotating, the orientation of this axis is
unaffected by tilting or rotation of the mounting, according to
the conservation of angular momentum.
Gyroscopes based on other operating principles also exist, such as the
microchip-packaged MEMS gyroscopes found in electronic devices
(sometimes called gyro meters), solid-state ring lasers, fiber optic
gyroscopes, and the extremely sensitive quantum gyroscope.
Applications of gyroscopes include inertial navigation systems, such as in
the Hubble Telescope, or inside the steel hull of a submerged submarine.
Due to their precision, gyroscopes are also used in gyro theodolites to
maintain direction in tunnel mining. Gyroscopes can be used to
construct gyrocompasses, which complement or replace magnetic
compasses (in ships, aircraft and spacecraft, vehicles in general), to assist
in stability (bicycles, motorcycles, and ships) or be used as part of an
inertial guidance system.

INTRODUCTION
History: Essentially, a gyroscope is a top combined with a pair
of gimbals. Tops were invented in many different civilizations, including
classical Greece, Rome, and China.Most of these were not utilized as
instruments.
The first known apparatus similar to a gyroscope (the "Whirling
Speculum" or "Serson's Speculum") was invented by John Serson in
1743. It was used as a level, to locate the horizon in foggy or misty
conditions.
The first instrument used more like an actual gyroscope was made
by Johann Bohnenberger of Germany, who
first wrote about it in 1817. At first he called
it the "Machine".Bohnenberger's machine
was based on a rotating massive sphere. In
1832, American Walter R. Johnson developed
a similar device that was based on a rotating
disc. The French mathematician Pierre-Simon
Laplace, working at the Ecole polytechnique
in Paris, recommended the machine for use as
a teaching aid, and thus it came to the
attention of Léon Foucault. In 1852, Foucault
used it in an experiment involving the
rotation of the Earth. It was Foucault who
gave the device its modern name, in an
experiment to see (Greek skopeein, to see) the
Earth's rotation (Greek gyros, circle or
rotation), which was visible in the 8 to 10
minutes before friction slowed the spinning
rotor.

In the 1860s, the advent of electric motors made it possible for a
gyroscope to spin indefinitely; this led to the first prototype heading
indicators, and a rather more complicated device, the gyrocompass. The
first functional gyrocompass was patented in 1904 by German
inventor Hermann Anschütz-Kaempfe. American Elmer Sperry followed
with his own design later that year, and other nations soon realized the
military importance of the invention—in an age in which naval prowess
was the most significant measure of military power—and created their
own gyroscope industries. The Sperry Gyroscope Company quickly
expanded to provide aircraft and naval stabilizers as well, and other
gyroscope developers followed suit.
In 1917, the Chandler Company of Indianapolis, created the "Chandler
gyroscope", a toy gyroscope with a pull string and pedestal. Chandler
continued to produce the toy until the company was purchased by
TEDCO inc. in 1982. The chandler toy is still produced by TEDCO
today. In the first several decades of the 20th century, other inventors
attempted (unsuccessfully) to use gyroscopes as the basis for early black
box navigational systems by creating a stable platform from which
accurate acceleration measurements could be performed (in order to
bypass the need for star sightings to calculate position). Similar principles
were later employed in the development of inertial navigation
systems for ballistic missiles.
During World War II, the gyroscope became the prime component for
aircraft and anti-aircraft gun sights. After the war, the race to miniaturize
gyroscopes for guided missiles and weapons navigation systems resulted
in the development and manufacturing of so-called midget
gyroscopes that weighed less than 3 ounces (85 g) and had a diameter of
approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm). Some of these miniaturized gyroscopes
could reach a speed of 24,000 revolutions per minute in less than 10
seconds.

This article describes gyroscopes and their effects in various fields of
everyday life. Gyroscopic effect is ability (tendency) of the rotating body
to maintain a steady direction of its axis of rotation. The gyroscopes are
rotating with respect to the axis of symmetry at high speed. Gyroscopic
effect is related to all rotating mechanisms (wheels, gears, shafts, rotors,
bicycles, motorcycles, children’s toys...). In some cases, we want to
enhance the gyroscopic effect (for stabilization, energy accumulation).
Stabilization effect is mainly used for two-wheeled vehicles. It can be
also used on ships and boats, where big wheel is rotating and preventing
the boat to overturn. Gyroscopic effects can help with energy
accumulation.
APPLICATIONS OF GYROSCOPIC EFFECT
Gyroscopic effect is used not only in the logistic but also in the military.
If the bullet is rotating around the longitudinal axis it is more stable and
for example the side wind doesn’t have so big effect on it.
ometimes the gyroscopic effect
complicates things. When the pilot
of the plane needs to change the
heading then during the left turn the
plane will go up and during the right
turn it goes down. This is caused by
the vector properties of the
gyroscope
Physical description of the gyroscope
Where M is moment, Fig.2
ω is angular speed and L angular momentum.
The use of gyroscopes in logistics can be divided into several groups: -
Stabilizers - Energy storage - Gyrocompass - Attitude and Heading
indicator - Pendulous Integrating Gyroscopic Accelerometer (PIGA) -
Gyrostat - Control moment gyroscope (CMG) - MEMS Gyroscope

Gyroscopic Effect on Aeroplane: Aeroplanes are subjected to
gyroscopic effect when it taking off, landing and negotiating left or right
turn in the air. Let us analyze the effect of gyroscopic couple acting on
the body of the aero plane for various conditions.
