Ultrasensitive Displacement Noise Measurement of Carbon Nanotube Mechanical Resonators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mechanical resonators based on a single carbon nanotube are exceptional sensors of mass and force. The force sensitivity in these ultra-light resonators is often limited by the noise in the detection of the vibrations.

Accessing nanomechanical resonators via a fast microwave circuit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The measurement of micron-sized mechanical resonators by electrical techniques is difficult, because of the combination of a high frequency and a small mechanical displacement which together suppress the electromechanical coupling.

Modeling and stability analysis for an ultrasonic motor

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2007
The development of motor models, adequate for motor design and optimization is still behind the technological state of the art. The reason for this lies in the fact that a couple of years ago the main emphasis regarding ultrasonic motors was on finding ...

Influence of mechanical vibrations on quasi-2D silo discharge of spherical particles

open access: yes, 2020
In this paper, we present a study of the influence of mechanical vibrations on silo discharges of granular matter. We propose a pragmatic understanding of the effects of vibrations on silo discharge using the framework of correlations and empirical laws ...

The use of a SQUID magnetometer for middle ear research [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
A new technique is described for the measurement of vibrations in the temporal bones of an isolated middle ear. The precise recording of vibrations in the middle ear is of importance for the construction and improvement of a middle ear prosthesis.1 The ...

A Novel Aerodynamic Force and Flutter of the High-Aspect-Ratio Cantilever Plate in Subsonic Flow

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2020
This paper focuses on the derivation of the aerodynamic force for the cantilever plate in subsonic flow. For the first time, a new analytical expression of the quasi-steady aerodynamic force related to the velocity and the deformation for the high-aspect-
