A hybrid on-chip optomechanical transducer for ultrasensitive force measurements.
Nanoscale mechanical oscillators are used as ultrasensitive detectors of force, mass and charge. Nanomechanical oscillators have also been coupled with optical and electronic resonators to explore the quantum properties of mechanical systems. Here, we report an optomechanical transducer in which a Si(3)N(4) nanomechanical beam is coupled to a disk-shaped optical resonator made of silica on a si...
متن کاملDesign and Test of a Soft Plantar Force Measurement System for Gait Detection
This work describes a plantar force measurement system. The MEMS pressure sensor, as the key sensing element, is designed, fabricated and embedded into a flexible silicon oil-filled bladder made of silicon rubber to constitute a single sensing unit. A conditioning circuit is designed for signal processing and data acquisition. The characteristics of the plantar force sensing unit are investigat...
متن کاملA Mono-axial Wheel Force Transducer for the Study of the Shimmy Phenomenon
The shimmy is an unstable oscillation of the whole castor wheel assembly about its king pin. The phenomenon originates from the castor motion and is mainly depending on the castor lateral flexibility and on the tire-road interaction. The paper analyzes the possibility to measure the tire lateral force by means of sensors that do not substantially change the inertial properties of the castor. A ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Tri-Axial Cutting Force Sensor for the Milling Process
This paper presents a three-component fixed dynamometer based on a strain gauge, which reduces output errors produced by the cutting force imposed on different milling positions of the workpiece. A reformative structure of tri-layer cross beams is proposed, sensitive areas were selected, and corresponding measuring circuits were arranged to decrease the inaccuracy brought about by positional va...
متن کاملA Ring-Shaped Tri-Axial Force Sensor for Minimally Invasive Surgery
This paper presents the design of a ring-shaped tri-axial fore sensor that can be incorporated into the tip of a guidewire for use in minimally invasive surgery (MIS). The designed sensor comprises a ring-shaped structure located at the center of four cantilever beams. The ringdesign allows surgical tools to be easily passed through which largely simplified the integration process. Silicon nano...
