A Mixed Rigid/Elastic Formulation for an Efficient Analysis of Electromechanical Systems

Ramaswamy D., Aluru N.R., White J.K., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US

In this paper we describe both how to extract rigid bodies given an input file of elements, and how to efficiently construct and solve the rigid-elastic system of equations. Results are given to demonstrate that [...]

A Fast Integral Equation Technique for Analysis of Microflow Sensors Based on Drag Force Calculations

Aluru N.R., White J.K., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US

It is well known that MEMS based microfluidic devices operate in very low Reynolds number regime (Re < 1). Analysis and design of such microfluidic devices requires the solution of incompressible viscous fluid flow or [...]

Fast Inductance Extraction of 3-D Structures with Non-Constant Permeabilities

Massoud Y., White J.K., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US

In this paper we present a discretized integral formulation for calculating the frequency-dependent inductance and resistance for 3-D structures that contains permeable materials. The method uses a magnetic surface charge formulation, and we present analytic [...]
