Wiley Microsystem Dynamics: Principles and Applications (The Wiley Microsystem and Nanotechnology Series)

Discover a comprehensive look at the principles and applications of microsystem dynamics Microsystems or microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are miniaturized devices with components measured in micrometers that perform micro- to nanometer scale electronic machine functions such as actuations. Since research and industrial production in recent decades has generated considerable knowledge of microsystem dynamics, there is an urgent need for a single guide which combines microsystem theory with practical applications to provide a general framework. Microsystem Dynamics fills this need, with the first single-volume overview of its kind. It presents the fundamental principles of microsystem dynamics in a unified theoretical framework, engineered to govern both analysis and design. Its discussion of applications includes cutting-edge methods for applying non-stationary, stochastic, non-linear dynamics and multi-physics of microsystems. Fully engaged with the latest research, this promises to be the essential single-volume introduction to its subject. Microsystem Dynamics readers will find: Discussion of advanced tools such as nonlinear signal processing, computational intelligence, and nonlinear chaos dynamics An authorial team with extensive experience in both academic and industrial research Analysis of stability and durability factors in dynamical microsystems Microsystem Dynamics is a useful reference for researchers and practitioners working in microscale engineering, as well as graduate students in mechanical, automotive, and electrical engineering.
