Triaxial synchronous calibration
sensitivity model of 3-Axis-Gs was established based on the physical source of cross-sensitivity. Then, a new
triaxial synchronous calibration method was proposed using the modified Hopkinson pressure bar, which can
simultaneously apply excitation accelerations with amplitudes greater than 100,000 g and frequencies greater
than 50 kHz along the three axes of 3-Axis-Gs. Finally, a 3-Axis-G was calibrated using both triaxial synchronous
and uniaxial calibration methods. Compared with uniaxial calibration, triaxial synchronous calibration can cover
the entire test range, whose results can reflect the actual cross-sensitivity characteristics of 3-Axis-Gs in a three-
dimensional loading environment.
