FSI Analysis of Microcantilevers Vibrating in Fluid Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
Cantilever vibration in fluid environment is probably one of the most common Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) problems in the field of Micro/Nano Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS/NEMS). Usually the effect of fluid on cantilever oscillation is characterized in terms of mode resonance frequencies and quality factors (Qs), being those two physical quantities what is actually measured in the dynamic operation. In this work a new approach to the above FSI problem is proposed: modes Q factors and resonance frequencies in a viscous fluid environment are calculated through an eigenfrequency analysis thus avoiding time domain simulation as in all the previous works about a computational approach to the current problem. Besides a considerable reduction of the computational time, because of the frequency domain approach, our model demonstrates very high accuracy with respect both to analytical and experimental results.

Simplified Aeroelastic Model for Fluid Structure Interaction between Microcantilever Sensors and Fluid Surroundings
Fluid-structural coupling occurs when microcantilever sensors vibrate in a fluid. Due to the complexity of the mechanical characteristics of microcantilevers and lack of high-precision microscopic mechanical testing instruments, effective methods for studying the fluid-structural coupling of microcantilevers are lacking, especially for non-rectangular microcantilevers. Here, we report fluid-str...

متن کاملValidity of the limp model for porous materials: a criterion based on the Biot theory.
The validity of using the limp model for porous materials is addressed in this paper. The limp model is derived from the poroelastic Biot model assuming that the frame has no bulk stiffness. Being an equivalent fluid model accounting for the motion of the frame, it has fewer limitations than the usual equivalent fluid model assuming a rigid frame. A criterion is proposed to identify the porous ...
