The aim of this paper is to present an Extended Kantorovich approach to simulate the static deflection of microplates under electrostatic voltage. The model accounts for the electric force nonlinearity of the excitation. ...

In general, the vibration frequency of electrically actuated nano/micro-beams under suddenly applied DC voltage is decreased with an increase of the input voltage. However, this descending behavior may be changed, if the initial gap between...

The present paper focuses on the fluid-structure interaction occurred in electrically actuated micro-switches to study the pull-in behaviour of such systems under squeeze air film effect. The Reynolds\\' equation as well as a geometric non...

This paper focuses on analyzing the unstable behavior of an electrically actuated functionally graded micro-cantilever under the effect of mechanical shock based on the modified couple stress theory. Since the micro-devices are usually mounted...
