BEM approaches and simplified kinetic models for the analysis of damping in deformable MEMS
نویسندگان
چکیده
Microflows occurring in MEMS are addressed by applying a continuum BEM code for quasi-static Stokes flow accounting for slip boundary condition. Working conditions typical of transition and rarefied flows are treated in a simplified manner by employing a viscosity corrected according to semi-analytical solutions for the linearized BGK model of Couette and Poiseuille flows. Numerical results are compared with experiments showing excellent agreement r 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Effect of thermoelastic damping in nonlinear beam model of MEMS resonators by differential quadrature method
This paper presents a nonlinear model of a clamped-clamped microbeam actuated by an electrostatic load with stretching and thermoelastic effects. The frequency of free vibration is calculated by discretization based on the Differential Quadrature (DQ) Method. The frequency is a complex value due to the thermoelastic effect that dissipates energy. By separating the real and imaginary parts of fr...
متن کاملNew expressions to estimate damping in direct displacement baseddesign for special concentrically-braced frames
Different expressions have been developed to determine damping of structures based on various hysteretic models and ductility levels. Since Slenderness ratio is an important parameter on the hysteretic behavior of special concentrically- braced frames (SCBF), in this paper new expressions for determination of damping of such frames are developed based on slenderness ratio and ductility. Two typ...
متن کاملStiffeners Mechanical Effect Analysis by Numerical Coupling
Given any structure, we seek to find the solution of mechanical problem as precisely and efficiently as possible. Within this condition, the BEM is robust and promising development, standing out in the analysis of cases with occurrence of large stress gradients, as in problems of fracture mechanics. Moreover, in BEM the modeling of infinite means is performed naturally, without the use of appro...
متن کاملDual BIE approaches for modeling electrostatic MEMS problems with thin beams and accelerated by the fast multipole method
Three boundary integral equation (BIE) formulations are investigated for the analysis of electrostatic fields exterior to thin-beam structures as found in some micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). The three BIE formulations are: (1) the regular BIE using only the single-layer potential; (2) the dual BIE (a) using the regular BIE on one surface of a beam and the gradient BIE on the other sur...
