A three-dimensional finite element model, based on the linear field equations for superimposed small vibrations onto nonlinear thermoelastic stressed media given by Lee and Yong, was developed. This method involves solving the thermal stress and piezoelectric model with geometric and ... Read More
Finite element (FE) modelling of ultrasonic propagation using COMSOL Multiphysics® simulations can be used to create images of waves. Unfortunately, in time-stepping solutions, it is possible for numerical instabilities to grow large and dominate the solution adversely. Any design of ... Read More
One of the main design questions in loudspeaker enclosures concern vibrations reduction. An ideal cabinet would be infinitely rigid, so a section of an engineer work is focused on this goal. Solutions depend by loudspeaker system audio field: Line Arrays, Automotive environments or hi ... Read More
Modern home audio products are starting to feature dedicated upward firing height channel speakers, which are a combination of unique physical speaker design and special signal processing, to reproduce audio as if the sound source is located in the ceiling. Due to slim form factor design ... Read More
Capacitive MEMS sensors offer high spatial resolution, sensitivity and good frequency response. In this paper, we present a circular membrane capacitive MEMS device that finds use both as capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) and pressure sensor. The MEMS device is first ...

The paper presents a method of extraction of coupling of modes (COM) parameters for a one port surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator from the results of finite element analysis in COMSOL Multiphysics®. The COM parameters calculated are electromechanical coupling coefficient, reflection ... Read More
Manuel Collet is a member of the Department of Applied Mechanics of the FEMTO-ST Institute. He graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Ecole Centrale de Lyon in 1992 and obtained his PhD in 1996 about Active control of vibrating structures by mean of semi distributed ... Read More
MEMS Pressure sensors work on the principle of mechanical bending of thin diaphragm under applied load over diaphragm area. The sensitivity of diaphragm is crucial to efficiency of the sensor. It is defined as the increase in deflection of diaphragm as a result of increase in pressure ... Read More
IntroductionThe application of power ultrasounds in food dehydration processes have shown a good performance in terms of efficiency, energy reduction and quality of the final product, allowing also a reduction in the convective drying kinetics, and at lower temperatures than conventional ...

This paper discusses the simulation studies on a vibration based energy harvesting system to convert the undesirable mechanical vibration to useful green power. The design consists of a resonating proof mass and a spring system enclosed in housing and fixed on the source of vibration. A ... Read More
