Studying teeth grinding behavior and other oral conditions requires the ability to accurately measure the pressure on the teeth. Placing a sensor in the mouth requires small size devices with powering and measurement techniques that do not hinder the normal life of the patient. To meet ... Read More
The majority of emerging quantum technologies require strict control over their magnetic field environment for their successful operation, and many others for benchmarking (like quantum magnetometers). The best control over magnetic field environment can be achieved with the combination ... Read More
Wireless sensor network has been extensively applied in a wide variety of areas such as defense, agriculture, transportation, etc. The major challenge in those networks is the finite energy of the sensor node which is by and large engaged in transmitting and receiving data. It is known ... Read More
Sensor integration in a workpiece can be used to characterize manufacturing processes but due to integration, a foreign element is added to the material which can alter its material properties [1]. This can lead to a high order of measurement uncertainty. Additionally, the extent of ... Read More
Since 2011, LATMOS has been involved in the development of Micro-ARES, an electric field sensor forming part of the DREAMS science payload of the ExoMars 2016 Schiaparelli entry, descent and landing demonstrator module (EDM). Micro-ARES is dedicated to the very first measurement and ... Read More
In this work, a bimetallic strip based thermal sensor was designed using MEMS module of COMSOL Multiphysics® software to monitor the temperature rise in insulating oil which was used as coolant in transformers. The bimetallic strip was designed with different shapes such as cylindrical, ... Read More
An artificial hand is the one that replaces the hand lost through trauma, disease, or congenital conditions. The proposed design is to simulate a sensor, used in prosthetic hand so as to measure the pressure required to hold the object, using COMSOL Multiphysics®. The physical parameters ... Read More
Blind cave fish are capable of sensing flows and movements of nearby objects even in dark and murky water conditions with the help of arrays of pressure-gradient sensors present on their bodies called lateral-lines. To emulate this functionality of lateral-lines for autonomous underwater ... Read More
A MEMS based electrostatic field sensor is presented which uses capacitive interrogation of an electrostatic force deflected microstructure. The deflection of the sensor is calculated both by simulation and theoretical model and it has been shown that the results of the simulations have ... Read More
In the rapid development cycle of sensor systems, minimizing time-to-market is crucial. However, designing a new MEMS-chip (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) presents significant challenges due to the extensive time required for manufacturing and characterization. This delay affects the ... Read More
