Modeling, design, and fabrication of pulsed fluidic micro-actuators
… design, and fabrication of electrostatic micro fluidic actuators, which use the pulsing mechanism described above to generate a fluid flow. Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is used to visualize the jet at various drive frequencies. The complex coupling between the electric field driving …

Strategic outsourcing of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS)
ABB Automation is starting to experiment with Micro-electrical Mechanical Systems (MEMS) as an enabling technology for their products. If ABB's implementation of MEMS is found successful, it will be able to create breakthrough products and services that will revolutionize the market in ABB's …

Feasibility of Assessing an Infant's General Movements Using Wireless Accelerometers for Early Diagnosis of Neurological Dysfunction
… has shown that data collected from"wired" micro-electrical-mechanical systems (MEMS) accelerometers attached to the wrist and ankles of an infant is a feasible way of collecting and characterizing the motion patterns that infants display during GMs [3]. The work presented in this thesis is …

Micro Surface Texturing for Friction Control
… which is involved in various applications and systems, such as components of internal combustion engines, dies and punches of the metal forming processes and Micro-electrical-mechanical Systems (MEMS). This dissertation demonstrates that under dry sliding, there is a specific significant …

Miniature Microscope Design And Construction Based On Tilted Rotationally Asymmetric Printed Lenses
… is possible. One method of early detection is microscopic inspection of the tissue at risk. Microscopic inspection can be performed by extracting a biopsy and using traditional microscopes, but biopsy is painful and inconvenient which limits its use. An alternative is in vivo microscopy using …

A Microsystems Approach for Drug Assessment
… we present two approaches for this purpose: a microengineered Boyden chamber, and a dielectrophoresis-based platform for cell characterization and drug assessment. Using these methods, we characterize the drug response of breast cancer, which is the second most common type of cancer among US …
