Coulomb-actuated microbeams revisited: experimental and numerical modal decomposition of the saddle-node bifurcation
Abstract Electrostatic micromechanical actuators have numerous applications in science and technology. In many applications, they are operated in a narrow frequency range close to resonance and at a drive voltage of low variation. Recently, new applications, such as microelectromechanical systems (M...
