The focus of this paper is to study the effect on resonance frequency and power enhancement techniques[1] of piezoelectric MEMS and modeling, design, and optimization of a piezoelectric generator based on a two-layer bending element(Figure 1) using COMSOL Multiphysics. An analytical ... Read More
Access to electricity has become a major problem. In the process of solving this problem we should consider even a small source of electricity. Piezotyres are made to produce electricity from vehicle tyres. For this we have used a piezoelectric property, one of the natural wonder. COMSOL ... Read More
Well‐designed and controlled nanochannels are ideal physical modeling systems to study fluidics in a precise manner. Electrokinetics refers to transport phenomena related to the non‐electroneutral EDL, which is created to neutralize the surface charges produced on surface. Surface ... Read More
This work describes the design and optimization of three prototypes of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) capacitive accelerometer-based middle ear microphone. The microphone is intended for middle ear hearing aids as well as future fully implantable cochlear prosthesis. The analysis ... Read More
In this study, a detailed finite element model coupling the motion dynamics and electromagnetics of a diaphragm based MEMS vibration energy harvester is presented. The energy harvester converts low frequency vibrations to high frequency response by magnetic actuation of a diaphragm ... Read More
