An extended reduced order model is presented and applied to analyze global and regional oscillations in BWRs. Stability and semianalytical bifurcation analyses are performed using this model in conjunction with the bifurcation code BIFDD to determine the s ...
We present an optomechanical displacement transducer that relies on three cavity modes parametrically coupled to a mechanical oscillator and whose frequency spacing matches the mechanical resonance frequency. The additional resonances allow reaching the st ...
Employing higher oscillation modes of microcantilevers promises higher sensitivity when applied as sensors, for example, for mass detection or in atomic force microscopy. Introducing a special cantilever geometry, we show that the relation between the reso ...
We present a new design of a mass sensor capable of detecting mass values in the zeptogram range. The sensor comprises a resonant beam and two gate electrodes used to oscillate the beam at its resonance frequency. The detection method is based on the tunne ...

We report on the characterization, active tuning and modeling of the first mode resonance frequency of dielectric electroactive polymer (DEAP) membranes. Unlike other resonance frequency tuning techniques, the tuning procedure presented here requires no ex ...

NOVELTY - The microscope (11) has a set of four actuators (14, 16, 18, 20) i.e. piezoelectric actuators, and a strain gauge coupled to two opposed actuators (14, 18), arranged in opposed push or push-pull configuration to measure the differential motion of ...
Scanning probe microscopy has become, nowadays, a branch of microscopy widely used to image surfaces of different specimens. Among the various applications, the magnetic imaging is one of the most exciting scanning probe microscopy techniques. It allows th ...
Since its development in 1986, the Atomic force microscope (AFM) has become a revolutionary tool for surface analysis. AFM is of special interest to biologists because of its ability to operate in liquids. Applications include imaging molecules, cells, tis ...
DC bias dependent acoustic resonance phenomena have been observed in micromachined tunable thin film capacitors based on Ba0.3Sr0.7TiO3 (BST) thin films. The antiresonance frequency is only weakly dc bias dependent, whereas the resonance frequency exhibits ...

The mechanical design of hydraulic turbines is conditioned by the dynamic response of the runner that is usually estimated by a computational model. Nevertheless, the runner has complex boundary conditions that are difficult to include in the computational ...
