Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology/Engineering/Mechanical A bestselling MEMS text...now better than ever. An engineering design approach to Microelectromechanical Systems, MEMS and Microsystems remains the only available text to cover both the electrical and the mechanical aspects of the technology. In the five years since the publication of the first edition, there have been significant changes in the science and technology of miniaturization, including microsystems technology and nanotechnology. In response to the increasing needs of engineers to acquire basic knowledge and experience in these areas, this popular text has been carefully updated, including an entirely new section on the introduction of nanoscale engineering. Following a brief introduction to the history and evolution of nanotechnology, the author covers the fundamentals in the engineering design of nanostructures, including fabrication techniques for producing nanoproducts, engineering design principles in molecular dynamics, and fluid flows and heat transmission in nanoscale substances. Other highlights of the Second Edition include: * Expanded coverage of microfabrication plus assembly and packaging technologies * The introduction of microgyroscopes, miniature microphones, and heat pipes * Design methodologies for thermally actuated multilayered device components * The use of popular SU-8 polymer material Supported by numerous examples, case studies, and applied problems to facilitate understanding and real-world application, the Second Edition will be of significant value for both professionals and senior-level mechanical or electrical engineering students.

Book Micro Mechanical Transducers

Download or read book Micro Mechanical Transducers written by Min-hang Bao and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2000-10-16 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some years ago, silicon-based mechanical sensors, like pressure sensors, accelerometers and gyroscopes, started their successful advance. Every year, hundreds of millions of these devices are sold, mainly for medical and automotive applications. The airbag sensor on which research already started several decades ago at Stanford University can be found in every new car and has saved already numerous lives. Pressure sensors are also used in modern electronic blood pressure equipment. Many other mechanical sensors, mostly invisible to the public, perform useful functions in countless industrial and consumer products. The underlying physics and technology of silicon-based mechanical sensors is rather complex and is treated in numerous publications scattered throughout the literature. Therefore, a clear need existed for a handbook that thoroughly and systematically reviews the present basic knowledge on these devices. After a short introduction, Professor Bao discusses the main issues relevant to silicon-based mechanical sensors. First a thorough treatment of stress and strain in diaphragms and beams is presented. Next, vibration of mechanical structures is illuminated, followed by a chapter on air damping. These basic chapters are then succeeded by chapters in which capacitive and piezoresistive sensing techniques are amply discussed. The book concludes with chapters on commercially available pressure sensors, accelerometers and resonant sensors in which the above principles are applied. Everybody, involved in designing silicon-based mechanical sensors, will find a wealth of useful information in the book, assisting the designer in obtaining highly optimized devices.

Book Design and Analysis of a MEMS Vibration Sensor for Automotive Mechanical Systems

Download or read book Design and Analysis of a MEMS Vibration Sensor for Automotive Mechanical Systems written by Joel Rebello and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents the theoretical analysis and experiment results of MEMS sensors designed for the application of low frequency vibration sensing. Each sensor consists of a proof mass connected to a folded beam micro-flexure, with an attached capacitive comb drive for displacement sensing. Three comb drive arrangements are evaluated, the transverse, lateral, and tri-plate differential. The sensors are fabricated using the well developed foundry processes of PolyMUMPS and SoiMUMPS. In addition, a capacitance to voltage readout circuit is fabricated using discrete components. Static tests, evaluating the capacitance to displacement relation, are conducted on a six degree of freedom robotic manipulator, and dynamic tests evaluating the sensor response to sinusoidal excitations are conducted on a vibrating beam. The end use of the sensor involves real-time vibration monitoring of automobile mechanical systems, such as power seats, windshield wipers, mirrors, trunks, and windows, allowing for early detection of mechanical faults before catastrophic failure.
