Semi-autonomous scheme for pushing micro-objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
-In many microassembly applications, it is often desirable to position and orient polygonal micro-objects lying on a planar surface. Pushing micro-objects using point contact provides more flexibility and less complexity compared to pick and place ...

Longitudinal and transversal piezoresistive response of granular metals

open access: yes, 2001
In this paper, we study the piezoresistive response and its anisotropy for a bond percolation model of granular metals. Both effective medium results and numerical Monte Carlo calculations of finite simple cubic networks show that the piezoresistive ...
