Optomechanical reference accelerometer [PDF]

open access: yesMetrologia, 2015
We present an optomechanical accelerometer with high dynamic range, high bandwidth and read-out noise levels below 8 ${\mu}$g/$\sqrt{\mathrm{Hz}}$. The straightforward assembly and low cost of our device make it a prime candidate for on-site reference ...

Electrostatic anti-spring-enhanced MEMS accelerometer with auto-tuning capability [PDF]

open access: yesMicrosystems & Nanoengineering
This study introduces a MEMS accelerometer equipped with an adaptive tuning system for an electrostatic anti-spring. As the input acceleration increases, the sensitivity of the adaptive MEMS accelerometer decreases to compensate for the measurement range.

Accelerometer Calibration Technique [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1950
A technique is described for the dynamic calibration of accelerometers or other vibration-measuring instruments. For each calibration frequency the accelerometer is attached to a free-free bar driven electromagnetically at a known sinusoidal displacement. Displacement amplitudes are measured by means of strain gauges which are calibrated optically. The

On the design of a triaxial accelerometer [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Micromechanics and Microengineering, 1994
Up to now, mainly uniaxial accelerometers are described in most publications concerning this subject. However, triaxial accelerometers are needed in the biomedical field.

Increase of Three-Axis Accelerometer Sensitivity Using Capacitor in Spring [PDF]

open access: yesAUT Journal of Electrical Engineering, 2022
This study has introduced a three-axis capacitive accelerometer, in which the part of the capacitor that calculates acceleration is installed in the z direction in the spring to improve the sensitivity in the said direction.

Structural Design and Optimization of a Resonant Micro-Accelerometer Based on Electrostatic Stiffness by an Improved Differential Evolution Algorithm

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
This study designed an in-plane resonant micro-accelerometer based on electrostatic stiffness. The accelerometer adopts a one-piece proof mass structure; two double-folded beam resonators are symmetrically distributed inside the proof mass, and only one ...

The impact of selected methodological factors on data collection outcomes in observational studies of device-measured physical behaviour in adults: A systematic review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 2023
Background Accelerometer measures of physical behaviours (physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep) in observational studies offer detailed insight into associations with health and disease.

A Novel Two-Axis Differential Resonant Accelerometer Based on Graphene with Transmission Beams

open access: yesSensors, 2022
In this paper, a novel two-axis differential resonant accelerometer based on graphene with transmission beams is presented. This accelerometer can not only reduce the cross sensitivity, but also overcome the influence of gravity, realizing fast and ...

Optomechanical Accelerometers for Geodesy

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
We present a novel optomechanical inertial sensor for low-frequency applications and corresponding acceleration measurements. This sensor has a resonant frequency of 4.715 (1) Hz, a mechanical quality factor of 4.76(3) × 105, a test mass of 2.6 g, and a projected noise floor of approximately 5 × 10−11 ms−2/Hz at 1 Hz.
