Study Of The Effect Of Elasticity Of The Added Mass In Mass Sensing Using Resonant Peak Shift Technique
(2013-05-21)Micromachined biosensors are used in chemical and biological applications. A biosensor which uses mass based transduction is called a mass sensor. Mass sensors are used to detect extremely small mass of biomolecules such ... -
Towards Design and Development of Indigenous Rate-Grade MEMS Gyroscopes
Gyroscopes sense angular speed of the body on which they are mounted. Traditional mechanical gyroscopes are big, bulky, expensive, and hence limited to a few applications. With the advent of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems ... -
Towards Design, Fabrication, Packaging, Integration, and Characterization of High-Performance MEMS Gyroscopes
MEMS vibratory gyroscopes are used to measure the angular rate of a body by sensing the Coriolis force induced motion of the sensing element vibrating in a rotating frame of reference. MEMS gyroscopes find use in a wide ... -
Towards the Development of MEMS g-Switches
Accelerometers are sensors that measure and record the acceleration of an object in motion. They typically contain spring and mass elements that are set into vibration upon any impressed acceleration. The characteristics ... -
Vibrational Energy Harvesting : Design, Performance and Scaling Analysis
(2018-07-12)Low-power requirements of contemporary sensing technology attract research on alternate power sources that can replace batteries. Energy harvesters function as power sources for sensors and other low-power devices by ...
