This work presents a systematic view of the dynamics of MEMS (microelectromechanical systems), microstructures, and their responses. The focus is on the mecahnical/structural micro domain and the compliant nature of mechanical transmission.
Features of this work include:
An in-depth treatment of problems that involve reliable modeling, analysis and design,
Analytical models with correct dependences on service dimensions,
Cantilever based systems for nanofabrication researchers and designers, and
Dynamics of complex spring and beam microsystems.
Although not designed for a specific course, this material could be used as a text at the upper-undergraduate/graduate level, and, as such, it contains numerous fully-solved examples as well as many end-of-the-chapter proposed problems. This is a follow up to the book, Mechanics of Microelectromechanical Systems, by Lobontiu and Garcia (Springer 2004), but the material in this new book is self-contained.
Dynamics of Microelectromechanical Systems is a timely text and reference for microstructural engineers, microengineers, and MEMS specialists.
This much-needed textbook is an exploration of a key area of study in mechanics. It is suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate level students and offers a novel and systematic look into the dynamics of MEMS. A highly practical treatment of the subject, it includes numerous solved examples together with the proposed problems. The material to be found here will also be of interest to researchers with a non-mechanical background. The book focuses on the mechanical domain, specifically the quasi-static sub-domain, and provides an in-depth treatment of problems that involve reliable modeling, analysis and design.
