This paper investigated the mechanical performance of an electrostatically tunable microbeams-based resonators.The resonator was designed based on two initially-curved microbeams that are electrostatically coupled, offering the potential for improved performance compared to single-beam based resonators.Analytical L-Phenylalanine models and simulati
Due to the increase in the number of vehicles, transportation management is achieved through the construction of bridges.This article discusses the vibrational effect in the design of CAL/MAG 2:1 bridges.In the structural design of the bridges proper planning is necessary, as gusts may occur, leading to aeroelastic instabilities.In this article a t
