We experimentally demonstrate an exploitation of the nonlinear softening, hardening, and
veering phenomena (near crossing), where the frequencies of two vibration modes get close …

Micromechanical oscillator sustains oscillation through a velocity-proportional feedback
force. Stabilization of the oscillation frequency is typically achieved by increasing the …

We report a new gas sensing technique based on the simultaneous tracking of multiple
modes of vibration of an electrothermally heated bridge resonator operated near the …

We investigate experimentally and analytically the effect of initial shapes, arc and cosine
wave, on the static and dynamic behavior of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) arch …

Nonlinear micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) resonators open new opportunities in
sensing and signal manipulation compared to their linear counterparts by enabling …

We present a pressure sensor based on the convective cooling of the air surrounding an
electrothermally heated resonant bridge. Unlike conventional pressure sensors that rely on …

We experimentally demonstrate a miniature highly sensitive wide-range resonant magnetic
Lorentz-force micro-sensor. The concept is demonstrated based on the detection of the …

In this study, the effects of laser light on the heat transfer of a thin beam heated by an applied

We demonstrate the exploitation of the nonlinear behavior of two electrically coupled
microbeam resonators to realize a band-pass filter. More specifically, we combine their …

There has been remarkable interest in nanomechanical computing elements that can
potentially lead to a new era in computation due to their re-configurability, high integration …
