چکیده

An array of micromirrors for beam steering optical switching has been designed in a thick polysilicon technology. A novel semi-analytical method to calculate the static characteristics of the micromirrors by taking into account the flexural deformation of the structure is presented. The results are compared with 3D coupledfield FEM simulation.

An approach to the coupling effect between torsion and bending for electrostatic torsional micromirrors

A general theoretical model using the coupling effect between the torsion and bending is presented in this paper, which characterizes the static properties of the electrostatic torsional micromirror, especially its pull-in effect. A set of normalized equations governing the static actuation properties of the torsional micromirror based on the parallel plate capacitor model is derived to demonst...

Coupled Flap-Lag-Torsional Vibration Analysis of Pre-twisted Non-uniform Helicopter Blades

An approximate numerical mthod is presented for analysis and determination of modal characteristics in straight, pretwisted non-unifom helicopter blades. The analysis considers the coupled flapwise bending (out of plane), chordwise bending (in plane), and torsion vibration of both rotating and non-rotating blades. The proposed method is based on the integral expansion of Green functions (struct...
