Design and fabrication of piezoelectric coupled MEMS resonators

Jialiang Fan

Multilayer MEMS resonators with physical constraints (coupling beams) were designed, fabricated and characterized, including cantilevers and clamped-clamped beams. This project focused on how the resonance frequencies and coupling constant depend on the ge ...

Soft microfabricated neural implants: a path towards translational implementation

Nicolas Vachicouras

Neuroprosthetics are a class of medical devices that aim to restore lost or impaired functions of the nervous system by electrical stimulation or recording of neural tissue. State of the art neural implants suffer today from a mechanical mismatch compared ...

Optimum Truss Design with Reused Stock Elements

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Gennaro Senatore, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting, Joseph Jean François Desruelle

This paper proposes the application of optimization techniques to design reticular structures made from a stock of reused elements. Still little explored, the reuse of structural components over multiple service lives has the potential to reduce the enviro ...
