System Dynamics for Engineering Students: Concepts and Applications, Second Edition, takes a classical approach to system dynamics with a balanced treatment of mechanical, electrical and thermal-fluid systems. This is the first text to include examples from compliant mechanisms and micro/nano electromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS). The book uses modeling and solution techniques that are familiar from other disciplines (such as ordinary differen...
A rigorous approach that employs structural/ mechanical design principles to solve the reliability problems in Microresonators.Resonators act as a frequency reference or to filter specific frequencies. Used in such products as cell phones or computers, resonators will allow the user to take advantage of high bandwidths to process and send greater amounts of data. When used in medical devises such as MRIs they can detect microorganisms and biol...
This work presents a systematic view of the dynamics of MEMS (microelectromechanical systems), microstructures, and their responses. The focus is on the mecahnical/structural micro domain and the compliant nature of mechanical transmission.
Features of this work include:
An in-depth treatment of problems that involve reliable modeling, analysis and design,
Analytical models with correct dependences on service dimensions,
Cantilever bas...
This book offers a comprehensive coverage to the mechanics of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), which are analyzed from a mechanical engineer's viewpoint as devices that transform an input form of energy, such as thermal, electrostatic, electromagnetic or optical, into output mechanical motion (in the case of actuation) or that can operate with the reversed functionality (as in sensors) and convert an external stimulus, such as mechanical...
