Thesis Title: Frequency and Damping Analysis of Microcantilever Beams

o Dynamic Behavior of MEMS Cantilever Beams – This work investigates the natural frequencies and damping characteristics of curved, Leaf shaped and generalized hexagonal MEMS cantilever beams under different energy dissipation mechanisms using experimental and numerical modelling techniques.

o    MEMS Accelerometer with Hexagonal Suspension Springs – The performance of MEMS accelerometers with hexagonal suspension springs is systematically analyzed using numerical simulations in MEMSPlus and MATLAB Simulink. System-level evaluations under different input profiles demonstrate that the closed-loop architecture enhances linearity, stability, and transient response compared to the open-loop system.
