Reduced order modelling and experimental validation of a MEMS gyroscope test-structure exhibiting 1:2 internal resonance.

ABSTRACT: Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems revolutionized the consumer market for their small dimensions, high performances and low costs. In recent years, the evolution of the Internet of Things is posing new challenges to MEMS designers that have to deal with complex multiphysics systems experiencing highly nonlinear dynamic responses. To be able to simulate a priori and in real-time the behavior of such systems it is thus becoming mandatory to understand the sources of nonlinearities and avoid them when harmful or exploit them for the design of innovative devices. In this work, we present the first numerical tool able to estimate a priori and in real-time the complex nonlinear responses of MEMS devices without resorting to simplified theories. Moreover, the proposed tool predicts different working conditions without the need of ad-hoc calibration procedures. It consists in a nonlinear Model Order Reduction Technique based on the Implicit Static Condensation that allows to condense the high fidelity FEM models into few degrees of freedom, thus greatly speeding-up the solution phase and improving the design process of MEMS devices. In particular, the 1:2 internal resonance experienced in a MEMS gyroscope test-structure fabricated with a commercial process is numerically investigated and an excellent agreement with experiments is found.

Indirect reduced-order modelling: using nonlinear manifolds to conserve kinetic energy.

Project description:Nonlinear dynamic analysis of complex engineering structures modelled using commercial finite element (FE) software is computationally expensive. Indirect reduced-order modelling strategies alleviate this cost by constructing low-dimensional models using a static solution dataset from the FE model. The applicability of such methods is typically limited to structures in which (a) the main source of nonlinearity is the quasi-static coupling between transverse and in-plane modes (i.e. membrane stretching); and (b) the amount of in-plane displacement is limited. We show that the second requirement arises from the fact that, in existing methods, in-plane kinetic energy is assumed to be negligible. For structures such as thin plates and slender beams with fixed/pinned boundary conditions, this is often reasonable, but in structures with free boundary conditions (e.g. cantilever beams), this assumption is violated. Here, we exploit the concept of nonlinear manifolds to show how the in-plane kinetic energy can be accounted for in the reduced dynamics, without requiring any additional information from the FE model. This new insight enables indirect reduction methods to be applied to a far wider range of structures while maintaining accuracy to higher deflection amplitudes. The accuracy of the proposed method is validated using an FE model of a cantilever beam.

Reduced-order modelling of biochemical networks: application to the GTPase-cycle signalling module.

Project description:Biochemical systems embed complex networks and hence development and analysis of their detailed models pose a challenge for computation. Coarse-grained biochemical models, called reduced-order models (ROMs), consisting of essential biochemical mechanisms are more useful for computational analysis and for studying important features of a biochemical network. The authors present a novel method to model-reduction by identifying potentially important parameters using multidimensional sensitivity analysis. A ROM is generated for the GTPase-cycle module of m1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, Gq, and regulator of G-protein signalling 4 (a GTPase-activating protein or GAP) starting from a detailed model of 48 reactions. The resulting ROM has only 17 reactions. The ROM suggested that complexes of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) and GAP--which were proposed in the detailed model as a hypothesis--are required to fit the experimental data. Models previously published in the literature are also simulated and compared with the ROM. Through this comparison, a minimal ROM, that also requires complexes of GPCR and GAP, with just 15 parameters is generated. The proposed reduced-order modelling methodology is scalable to larger networks and provides a general framework for the reduction of models of biochemical systems.

CMOS-MEMS test-key for extracting wafer-level mechanical properties.

Project description:This paper develops the technologies of mechanical characterization of CMOS-MEMS devices, and presents a robust algorithm for extracting mechanical properties, such as Young's modulus, and mean stress, through the external electrical circuit behavior of the micro test-key. An approximate analytical solution for the pull-in voltage of bridge-type test-key subjected to electrostatic load and initial stress is derived based on Euler's beam model and the minimum energy method. Then one can use the aforesaid closed form solution of the pull-in voltage to extract the Young's modulus and mean stress of the test structures. The test cases include the test-key fabricated by a TSMC 0.18 μm standard CMOS process, and the experimental results refer to Osterberg's work on the pull-in voltage of single crystal silicone microbridges. The extracted material properties calculated by the present algorithm are valid. Besides, this paper also analyzes the robustness of this algorithm regarding the dimension effects of test-keys. This mechanical properties extracting method is expected to be applicable to the wafer-level testing in micro-device manufacture and compatible with the wafer-level testing in IC industry since the test process is non-destructive.

System identification and mechanical resonance frequency suppression for servo control used in single gimbal control moment gyroscope.

Project description:Effective identification of the control model is one of the key aspects in improving the performance of the single gimbal control moment gyroscope (SGCMG) servo system. The accuracy and stability of the servo system can be improved by studying system identification and mechanical resonance frequency. In this study, firstly, the SGCMG gimbal servo system was simplified to a two-mass block model. The theoretical mathematical model of the system's transfer function and mechanical resonance frequency was derived. Secondly, this paper studied the effective suppression method for mechanical resonance. Thirdly, the mathematical model of the orthogonal correlation analysis method was deduced for system identification. Then, an experimental platform was investigated to obtain the frequency characteristic curve and the transfer function. Finally, the frequency characteristic curve obtained using the transfer function model was plotted and compared with the frequency characteristic curve obtained experimentally. Our results indicate that the orthogonal correlation analysis has a high identification accuracy.

Diagnostic performance of virtual fractional flow reserve derived from routine coronary angiography using segmentation free reduced order (1-dimensional) flow modelling.

Project description:IntroductionFractional flow reserve (FFR) improves assessment of the physiological significance of coronary lesions compared with conventional angiography. However, it is an invasive investigation. We tested the performance of a virtual FFR (1D-vFFR) using routine angiographic images and a rapidly performed reduced order computational model.MethodsQuantitative coronary angiography (QCA) was performed in 102 with coronary lesions assessed by invasive FFR. A 1D-vFFR for each lesion was created using reduced order (one-dimensional) computational flow modelling derived from conventional angiographic images and patient specific estimates of coronary flow. The diagnostic accuracy of 1D-vFFR and QCA derived stenosis was compared against the gold standard of invasive FFR using area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC).ResultsQCA revealed the mean coronary stenosis diameter was 44% ± 12% and lesion length 13 ± 7 mm. Following angiography calculation of the 1DvFFR took less than one minute. Coronary stenosis (QCA) had a significant but weak correlation with FFR (r = -0.2, p = 0.04) and poor diagnostic performance to identify lesions with FFR <0.80 (AUC 0.39, p = 0.09), (sensitivity - 58% and specificity - 26% at a QCA stenosis of 50%). In contrast, 1D-vFFR had a better correlation with FFR (r = 0.32, p = 0.01) and significantly better diagnostic performance (AUC 0.67, p = 0.007), (sensitivity - 92% and specificity - 29% at a 1D-vFFR of 0.7).Conclusions1D-vFFR improves the determination of functionally significant coronary lesions compared with conventional angiography without requiring a pressure-wire or hyperaemia induction. It is fast enough to influence immediate clinical decision-making but requires further clinical evaluation.

Experimental investigation of rotating nodal line of MEMS-based nonlinear multi-mode resonators.

Project description:Nonlinear phenomenon is presently attracting considerable attention in the field of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). By adjusting a controllable tuning voltage, the nonlinearity of microdevices, especially on microactuators, can be precisely manipulated. To trap and separate small particles, generating a large and stable rotation force is critical in micromanipulations. Here, we report a simple and potential angular momentum cell comprising a piezoelectric MEMS-based nonlinear multi-mode resonator with integrated electrodes. A nonlinear rotating nodal line has been observed in specific frequency bands by applying a controllable low voltage of sub 5 V on a 4-port resonator made of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films. The magnitude of the actuated voltage is Complementary-Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS)-compatible and easy to integrate with the circuit. Furthermore, the real-time rotation motion of the MEMS-based nonlinear multi-mode resonator is also verified by a laser doppler vibrometer (LDV) at both chirp and single input frequencies, respectively. Therefore, this angular momentum cell shows great potential in the application of micromanipulation.

Candida albicans and Candida glabrata clinical isolates exhibiting reduced echinocandin susceptibility.

Project description:A recognized hotspot for mutations conferring reduced echinocandin susceptibility (RES) is residue S645 of Candida albicans Gsc1(Fks1). We report that the mutation F641Y is associated with RES in a C. albicans isolate. The analogous Fks2 residue is mutated F to V in a Candida glabrata RES isolate; the introduction of this mutation into susceptible C. glabrata confirmed its role in RES. Y641-equivalent Fks residues were identified in intrinsically RES Fusarium species and Candida guilliermondii.

Molecular Characterization of Equine Staphylococcus aureus Isolates Exhibiting Reduced Oxacillin Susceptibility.

Project description:The detection of borderline oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (BORSA) represents a challenge to both, veterinary and human laboratories. Between 2015 and 2017, 19 equine S. aureus with elevated minimal inhibitory concentrations for oxacillin were detected in routine diagnostics. The aim of this study was to characterize these isolates to identify factors possibly associated with the BORSA phenotype. All S. aureus were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole genome sequencing (WGS). A quantifiable β-lactamase activity assay was performed for a representative subset of 13 isolates. The WGS data analysis of the 19 BORSA isolates identified two different genomic lineages, sequence type (ST) 1 and ST1660. The core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) revealed a close relatedness of all isolates belonging to either ST1 or ST1660. The WGS analysis identified the resistance genes aadD, dfrG, tet(L), and/or blaZ and aacA-aphD. Phenotypic resistance to penicillins, aminoglycosides, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim was observed in the respective isolates. For the penicillin-binding proteins 1-4, amino acid substitutions were predicted using WGS data. Since neither transglycosylase nor transpeptidase domains were affected, these alterations might not explain the BORSA phenotype. Moreover, β-lactamase activity was found to be associated with an inducible blaZ gene. The lineage-specific differences regarding the expression profiles were noted.
