3D FEM dissipation model of suspended micro channel resonators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, François Gallaire, Annalisa De Pastina, Andrea Fani

Suspended micro channel resonators (SMCs) consist of hollow resonant structures containing an embedded u-shaped micro fluidic channel. The confinement of the fluid inside the resonator allows real time detection of liquid compounds in air or in vacuum, whi ...
