Compared with the traditional pure Shupe effect model, the simulation results show that the new 3D model, including elastic strain and the elasto-optical effect, can describe the thermal effect of the coils more accurately. Experiments with temperature change rates between -40℃ and 70℃ are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed generalized expression. The results of our work can guide researchers in identifying countermeasures to reduce the thermal-induced bias error in IFOG.展开更多
