Physically-Based High-Level System Model of a MEMS-Gyroscope for the Efficient Design of Control Algorithms

Khalilyulin R., Schrag G., Wachutka G., Münich University of Technology, DE

We present a high-level model of a dual gimbaled mass gyroscope, which provides an accurate physical description of the impact of external and internal disturbances on the output signal, but which also allows for the [...]

High-Stability Numerical Algorithm for the Simulation of Deformable Electrostatic MEMS Devices

Rottenberg X., Nauwelaers B., De Raedt W., Elata D., IMEC, BE

This paper presents a novel high-stability algorithm for the simulation of the electromechanical actuation of electrostatic MEMS devices. Its stability improves on that of voltage- and charge-drive algorithms. It further offers a purely electrical simulation [...]

Fast Methods for Particle Dynamics in Dielectrophoretic and Oscillatory Flow Biochips

Chowdhury I., Wang X., Jandhyala V., University of Washington, US

This paper presents novel BEM for particle transport in microfluidic channels. Code performance and simulation results are presented

Modeling & Simulation of Microsystems

Cerebral Oxygen Diffusion and Transport, at the Microscopic Level, and BOLD fMRI

Hadjistassou C.K., Moyle K., Ventikos Y., University of Oxford, UK

With the prospect of elucidating the Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent (BOLD) fMRI effect we consider cerebral oxygen transport at the microscopic scale. We concentrate on the transient response of a capillary-tissue system following brain activity. [...]

The binding site interactions between 7-chloro-tetracycline and the Tet Repressor

de Bruin P.H.S., Flores M.Z.S., Caetano E.W.S., Cavada B.S., Freire V.N., Universidade Federal do Ceará, BR

Tetracyclines are a class of broad spectrum antibiotics whose use has been limited by the emergence of bacterial resistance. The most common mechanism of resistance is regulated by the repressor protein, TetR. The structure of [...]

A Synchrotron X-ray Scattering Study on the Structure of Pepsin in Solution

Jin K.S., Jin S., Jin K.S., Jin S., Yoon J., Heo K., Kim J., Ree M., Pohang University of Science and Technology, KR

To understand the conformational behavior of a protein, it is necessary to define not only the structure of its native state but also that of various denatured states. Recent studies have revealed the biological significance [...]

Conditional Probabilistic Modeling of Carbohydrate Metabolism

Barjis I., Sierra M., New York City College of Technology, US

The ongoing processes of metabolic network are very complex, and consequently, difficult to understand and teach; furthermore, it is impossible to predict and analyze it when unpredictable changes are made. Because of the complexity of [...]

Molecular Synergy in the Nano-networks

Znamirowski L., Silesian University of Technology, PL

Technology heterogeneity in the products or object fabrication system, where the external control system usually is based on silicon technology, the interface e.g. transducers or robots represents mixed technology, and the controlled process another, leads [...]
