A theoretical and experimental study of the viscous damping effect for diaphragm-based MEMS application

In the analysis and design of microelectromechanical system (MEMS) devices, volume and surface forces are two physical quantities that are commonly encountered. During miniaturization, equal reduction of both the volume and the surface of a microstructure is not normally achievable. A 10% reduction...
