The low-cholesterol cancerous environment can affect the biophysical behaviour of transmembrane proteins. It is difficult to experiment and measure the dynamics of membrane protein systems when cholesterol concentration ...

MEMS resonators have potential applications in the areas of RF-MEMS, clock oscillators, ultrasound transducers, etc. The important characteristics of a resonator are its resonant frequency and Q-factor (a measure of damping). ...

This work deals with the electromechanical analysis of the Hemispherical Resonator Gyroscope (HRG). The HRG is a type of Coriolis vibratory gyroscope (CVG), which uses Coriolis force to measure the input angular rate. For ...

MEMS based single and dual-axis gyroscopes have been widely explored for potential application in automotive, space, defense, and consumer electronics sectors. Tri-axis gyroscopes based on MEMS, however, have been sparsely ...

MEMS Vibratory Ring Gyroscopes (VRGs) are highly sensitive owing to their in-plane symmetric structure that ensures mode matching. We present a VRG with Comb drive actuation that offers linearity in drive mode, and variable ...

This work presents an analytical model to predict the natural frequency of electrostatically actuated micromachined cantilever beam under the application of DC voltage. The analytical modelling uses an energy based method ...

MEMS resonators have potential application in the area of frequency selective devices (e.g., gyroscopes, mass sensors, etc.). In this paper, design of electro thermally tunable resonators is presented. SOIMUMPs process is ...

The Hemispherical Resonator Gyroscope (HRG) is a low-noise, high-performance angular rate sensor, or rotation sensor with a small footprint. A thin, solid-state hemispherical shell is used to fabricate the HRG, which is ...

In this study, we will create a grid of micro electro-mechanical (MEMS) sensors, which will measure the contents of soil, especially urea. This will inform the farmers about the condition of soil in real time, and thus ...

In the present paper, we design a Microelectro- Mechanical System (MEMS) piezoresistive pressure sensor for intracranial pressure monitoring. The pressure sensor design presented in this paper consists of a square diaphragm. ...
