Coupled fluid-dynamical and structural analysis of a mono-axial mems accelerometer

This study is aimed to numerically investigate the elastodynamics of a mono-axial MEMS accelerometer. The vibrating part of the device is dipped into a fluid micro-channel and made of a proof mass connected to the frame by two flexible legs. The adopted mathematical model lies on a linearized motion...
