Micro-Electro-Mechanical system (MEMS) can be understood as miniaturized mechanical and electromechanical elements that include sensors, actuators, and microelectronics. Capacitive accelerometers are the devices which measure the acceleration on a surface using capacitive sensing ... Read More
Recent rapid progress in MEMS with wireless communication system has enabled low power micro sensor network for human body, Body Area Sensor Network (BASN). The information gathering from BASNs will provide a significant opportunities for various medical applications. One of the key ... Read More
Rebar detectors are used extensively by construction contractors to locate rebars while drilling, coring or cutting in RCC to avoid causing damage to the reinforcement steel. These detectors are also used by inspection engineers for spot checking of civil infrastructure. Most cost ... Read More
The aim of this work is to present a model capable to describe the behaviour of a thermal flow sensor under every physical aspect. A generic thermal flow sensor relates the flow properties with a variation in the temperature profile inside the device itself. Thus, it is locally heated ... Read More
Designing and constructing a lab-on-a-chip device poses a variety of questions. Transport of all required substances, detection of the analyte and its deposition on a sensor have to be incorporated. Different strategies have been developed to achieve good coverages of the sensor, like ... Read More
Micro-machined ultrasound transducers have a wide range of applications. As a sensor or actuator they can be used for measuring fluid speed and direction, to mix and excite particles (sonication), for taking images (ultrasonography), for non-destructive testing and many other purposes in ...

Sodium is used as a coolant in Fast Breeder Reactors. Eddy Current Flowmeter (ECFM) is used for measurement of sodium flow in the primary pump and at the outlet of the subassemblies. Eddy Current Flowmeter (ECFM) works on the principle of change in the magnetic field profile due to ... Read More
When a dual probe heat pulse (DPHP) sensor is installed near the soil-atmosphere interface, the basic assumptions of the infinite line heat source (ILS) model and its improvement, the infinite line heat source model with an adiabatic boundary condition (ILS-ABC), might not be satisfied ...

Smart fabrics enable the integration of electronics into fabric. They can serve as a suitable sensor providing around-the-clock assistance for the real-time monitoring of health parameters. Here, we aim to develop a free-standing piezoelectric cantilever sensor integrated into ... Read More
Microheaters used for gas sensing applications have been studied analytically and experimentally. Previously reported microheaters at COMSOL® conferences have shed light on microheaters’ thermal properties, optimized geometries and power consumption—all based on steady-state analysis. In ...
