Abstract. A mathematical model has been developed to simulate apparent angular velocity induced by unstable thermal state of the gyroscope sensor. The model is based on numerical solution of related differential boundary value problem of thermal photoelasticity. Results of numerical simulation for non-stationary thermal drift are presented and compared with full-scale experiment data.
