Abstract:
While the characteristic dimensions of electronic systems scale down to micro- or nano-world, their performance is greatly influenced. Micro-fabrication process or variations of the operating situation such as temperature, humidity or pressure are usual cause of dispersion. Therefore, it seems essential to co-integrate self-testing or self-adjustment routines for these microdevices. For this feature, most existing system parameter estimation methods are based on the implementation of high-resolution digital measurements of the system's output. Thus, long design time and large silicon areas are

Abstract:
We investigate (i) pull-in instabilities in a microelectromechanical (MEM) beam due to the Coulomb force and in MEM membranes due to the Coulomb and the Casimir forces, and (ii) thermomechanical instability in a heat-conducting thermoelastoviscoplastic solid due to thermal softening overcoming hardening caused by strain- and strain-rate effects. Each of these nonlinear multiphysics problems is analyzed by the meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method. The moving least squares (MLS) approximation is used to generate basis functions for the trial solution, and the basis for test functions is

Abstract:
The production of magnetic materials is of great interest for use in the micro-fabrication industry. In particular, Permalloy (Ni80Fe20) is used in the production of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) due to its favourable magnetic properties (high relative permeability, low coercivity and high magnetic saturation). This leads to applications in devices such as inductors, transformers and micro-actuators. The electrodeposition of NiFe is also of fundamental electrochemical interest, as there is anomalous thermodynamic behaviour, with the less noble (iron) metal depositing preferentially to

Significant advances in wind turbine technology have increased the need for maintenance through condition monitoring. Indeed condition monitoring techniques exist and are deployed on wind turbines across Europe and America but are limited in scope.
