A Nonlocal Quenching Problem Arising in Micro-electro Mechanical System

In this paper, we study a nonlocal parabolic problem arising in the study of microelectro mechanical system. The nonlocal nonlinearity involved is related to an integral over the spatial domain. We first give the structure of stationary solutions. Then we derive the convergence of global (in time) solution to the maximal solution as the time tends to infinity. Finally, we provide some quenching...

Waveguide micro-opto-electro-mechanical resonant chemical sensors.

We demonstrate a silicon micro-opto-electro-mechanical sensor based on mass-loading of a chemo-selective polymer coated onto a microbridge. The sensor is probed optically using an on-chip waveguide Fabry-Pérot interferometer for high resolution displacement and resonant frequency measurement. The mechanical resonator is designed with paddles to simplify chemo-selective polymer deposition and to...

Nonlinear energy harvesting through a multimodal electro-mechanical system

A semi-analytical method is used to illustrate the behavior of a multimodal nonlinear electromechanical system which is under base-excitation. System is considered as piezo-ceramic patches attached to a cantilever beam coupled to a resistive load. The cantilever beam is modeled as a nonlinear Timoshenko beam using Assumed Mode method and equations of motion are derived through Lagrange's equati...
