Energy Harvesting From Ambient Vibration For Remote Vibration Monitoring With A Self-powered Nanotube Based Sensor
Khoshnoud, Farbod; de Silva, Clarence W.; Owhadi, Houman; Ventura, Carlos E. (2011)Harvesting energy from ambient vibration in the context of supplying power to a sensor for remote vibration monitoring is presented in this paper. The sensor is powered by the same vibration that is being measured. A ... -
Multi-scale Non-equilibrium Molecular Dynamics Formulation For Casimir Energy
Khoshnoud, Farbod; de Silva, Clarence W.; Owhadi, Houman; Li, Shaofan (2011)Formulation of the Casimir effect using multi-scale nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (MS-NEMD) is addressed in this paper. Except in the case of parallel plates, simulation of the Casimir effect is a challenging task. ... -
Recent Advances in MEMS Sensor Technology : Thermo-fluid and Electro-magnetic Devices
Khoshnoud, Farbod; de Silva, Clarence W. (2012-06)This is the final part of a three-part series on micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) sensor technology. In the first part, a general introduction to MEMS sensing was given including the underlying principles [1]. ... -
Self-Powered Dynamic Systems
Khoshnoud, Farbod; Dell, David; de Silva, Clarence W.; Chen, Yong; Owhadi, Houman; Calay, Rajnish (2013-07)This article concerns the concept of energy harvesting associated with dynamic systems. The particular area of work is the concept of fully or partially self-powered dynamic systems requiring zero or reduced external energy ...
