This paper demonstrates the design of a tunable MEMS capacitor with two plates (one movable and one fixed). The response time obtained is 5μs. The tunable capacitor plays an important role in RF circuits. We focus on a tunable capacitor simulated using COMSOL Multiphysics®. In an ... Read More
Micro Mirrors is a versatile device which has been gaining popularity and this finds application in fields such as optical switching, display and in medical fields for non-invasive imaging. A thermally actuated mirror moves in either positive or negative directions of x and y. The ends ... Read More
Resistive plate chambers (RPC) are fast gaseous detectors, having a simple design and construction, good time resolution and high efficiency. These are extensively used in high energy physics experiments. A large number of RPCs will be used as the main detector element for India’s mega ... Read More
The microscopic size of MEMS devices accounts for strong coupling effects which arise between the different physical fields and forces. Micromirrors are essential parts of microswitches in fiber optic network telecommunication. They are usually 1 to 3 mm in size, fabricated from single ... Read More
Accelerometers are successfully commercialized MEMS devices. COMSOL Multiphysics® has been used in the modeling, simulation and optimizing of this design. The piezoresistive accelerometer is made up of a square proof mass with flexures supporting it. The piezoresistors are placed near ... Read More
The demand for high reliability motor drives increases every day, especially in aircraft where traditional, nonelectric systems (hydraulic, pneumatic) are being replaced by electrical actuators following the More Electric Aircraft (MEA) trend. Its pursuing involves the adoption of ... Read More
We describe methods and results of simulations done for predicting behavior of particles in an aqueous solution under an applied AC electric field on electrodes of rectangular and triangular shapes. Here the two major effects which come into play are Dielectrophoresis and AC ... Read More
Finite element modeling of three phase three limbed transformer requires solving of field and circuit variables simultaneously. The accurate modeling thus obtained could predict asymmetry in magnetizing current of three phases due to asymmetry in core of three limbed transformer. This ... Read More
An optimization routine is presented to optimize a hybrid winding geometry for a toroid inductor in terms of the DC-resistance. The hybrid winding geometry consist of bended foil pieces connected through traces in a PCB. MATLAB® is used to create a GUI that visually plots the winding ... Read More
Although resuscitation during pregnancy is relatively uncommon and rarely causes death, they have a particularly large impact in terms of the mortality of the unborn child and long-term effects on families and society as whole. In this paper, we present a new 3D finite element model of a ... Read More
