In the past fifteen years mathematical models for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)
have been the subject of several studies, in particular due to the interesting qualitative …

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) often make use of a type of plate-based
electrostatic actuator that can, under certain conditions, come into contact with a dielectric …

In canonical models of Micro-Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS), an event called
touchdown whereby the electrical components of the device come into contact, is …

Micro-Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) are defined as very small structures that

We present a finite difference method for mesh generation and adaptation with application to
the solution of partial differential equations in curved domains. For mesh generation, we …

A model for a MEMS device, consisting of a fixed bottom plate and an elastic plate, is
studied. It was derived in a previous work as a reinforced limit when the thickness of the …
