RISApproaches for Reduced-Order Modeling of Electrically Actuated von-Karman Microplates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article presents and compares different approaches to develop reduced-order models for the nonlinear von-Karman rectangular microplates actuated by nonlinear electrostatic forces. The reduced-order models aim to ...
An Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of the Mechanical Behavior of Multilayer Initially Curved Microplates Under Electrostatic Actuation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We investigate the static and dynamic behavior of a multilayer clamped-free–clamped-free (CFCF) microplate, which is made of polyimide, gold, chromium, and nickel. The microplate is slightly curved away from a stationary ...
The Effects of Initial Rise and Axial Loads on MEMS Arches
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Arch microbeams have been utilized and proposed for many uses over the past few years due to their large tunability and bistability. However, recent experimental data have shown different mechanical behaviors of arches ...
