Notes:
Recent work has shown that both the normal and resultant in-plane acceleration sensitivities of contoured quartz resonators vanish for a perfectly symmetric resonator and support system. It has also been shown that any loss of symmetry in the combined resonator plus support configuration results in a significant degradation in the acceleration sensitivity. Since it is essentially impossible to construct a perfectly symmetric resonator plus support configuration in practice, a stiffened structure is considered. The structure consists of the active biconvex quartz resonator attached to identical top and bottom quartz cover plates by means of small sidewalls around the periphery. The mounting clips are attached to the top and bottom cover plates without touching the active plate. An analysis of the normal acceleration sensitivity of this configuration is performed. Results are presented for a mispositioning of either a clip or the mode shape for a range of thickness of cover plates relative to the active plate.
