.... Design/methodology/approach The sensor uses a conical structure with damping force from slit flow. Its mathematical model is established. Simulink simulation is conducted to get the piston displacement-time curve and the influence of key structural parameters. Optimal structure parameters are obtained...

...Zhong Jin; Feng He; Meng Zhou; Jinyu Li; Fang-Ting Liu; Junhui Li Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore simulation-based methods for enhancing the sensitivity of pressure-sensitive chips, aiming to reduce design time and overall development costs. Design/methodology/approach First...

... frequencies and finding the time of flight for transmission mode signal and lamb mode signal are achieved by the means of done simulations. Finding the proper ultrasonic sensor base on its efficiency is the main step of designing an UT system. This is done by estimating the resonance frequency of sensor due...

... as heat and electricity insulating characteristics of SiO2, Si3N4 and combination of both, a kind of the Si‐substrate microhotplate was designed and simulated using ANSYS 10.0 tool. Thermal oxidation of Si wafer was carried out to get a 1.0 μm thick SiO2 layer. Pt deposition on oxidized silicon...

... on spherical mirror properties of the concave mirror and the simulated result is found to be in good agreement with the experimental results. Findings Both theoretical and experimental results show that the focal length and radius of the concave mirror make significant influence to the displacement...

...‐dimensional finite element simulations have been carried out. Spring elements are used to interconnect the nodes of the meshed models of optical fiber and coating. The effect of adhesion is studied as a function of spring stiffness. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited 2004 Sensors Temperature...

...Chris Blasband; Jim Bleak; Gus Schultz As real‐time, high‐fidelity visual scene simulation has become ubiquitous in the training, modeling and simulation community, a growing need for more than “out‐the‐window” scene simulation has developed. A strong requirement has developed for the ability...
