Measurement of the Quality Factor for the Micro Electromechanical System Cantilever Devices by Using Non-Destructive Test Methodology
(University of Waterloo, 2014-12-01)Development of the reliability and the performance of Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) devices are the most challenging tasks of scientists and engineers. At the same time, there is a need for advance and more complex ... -
Modelling the Dynamics of Mass Capture
(University of Waterloo, 2013-05-01)This thesis presents an approach to modelling dynamic mass capture which is applied to a number of system models. The models range from a simple 2D Euler-Bernoulli beam with point masses for the end-effector and target to ... -
Novel Semi-Active Suspension with Tunable Stiffness and Damping Characteristics
(University of Waterloo, 2013-01-15)For the past several decades there have been many attempts to improve suspension performance due to its importance within vehicle dynamics. The suspension system main functions are to connect the chassis to the ground, ...
