Paraffin-pdms Composite Thermo Microactuator with Large Vertical Displacement Capability
We have micromachined and tested the first paraffin–PDMS composite thermal microactuator having multi shot large vertical displacement capabilities (~160 μm for 1 mm diameter device). A solid to liquid phase change of trapped paraffin into the PDMS is used to create a large volume dilatation of the composite (18%, for a temperature varied from 20 to 80 °C). The elasticity of the PDMS ensures th...
متن کاملA low volume electrostatic inchworm microactuator with high-resolution and large force
A novel electrostatic inchworm microactuator, which employs both a built-in mechanical transformation and a large number of contraction units to generate large force and sub-micrometer resolution step, is presented. The actuator is fabricated in a single polysilicon device layer using a trench isolation technology. The entire actuator, including the clamps and the contraction element, fits in a...
متن کاملOpportunistic Routing in Low Duty-Cycled Wireless Sensor Networks
Opportunistic routing is widely known to have substantially better performance than unicast routing in wireless networks with lossy links. However, wireless sensor networks are heavily duty-cycled, i.e. they frequently enter sleep states to ensure long network life-time. This renders existing opportunistic routing schemes impractical, as they assume that nodes are always awake and can overhear ...
متن کاملOptimal stochastic routing in low duty-cycled wireless sensor networks
We study a routing problem in wireless sensor networks where sensors are duty-cycled. When sensors alternate between on and off modes, delay encountered in packet delivery due to loss in connectivity can become a critical problem, and how to achieve delay-optimality is non-trivial. For instance, when sensors’ sleep schedules are uncoordinated, it is not immediately clear whether a sensor with d...
متن کاملDuty Cycled Multi Channel Mac for Wireless Sensor Networks
In this work, Duty Cycled Sensor Multi Channel (DC-SMC) Medium Access Control (MAC) has been proposed for wireless sensor networks. The DC-SMC MAC uses a dedicated control channel and multiple data channels. The effective solution for the multi channel hidden terminal problem and missing receiver problem has been proposed in this work. The performance of the DC-SMC MAC has been compared with th...
