Silicon micromachined sensors and sensor arrays for shear-stress measurements in aerodynamic flows
In this thesis we report on a new micromachined floating-element shear-stress sensor for turbulent boundary layer research. Applications in low shear-stress environments such as turbulent boundary layers require extremely high sensitivity to detect the small forces (O(nN)) and correspondingly small...
