Simple MEMS Cantilever - No Electrodes

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Dear All,

I am new here and I would like to model a simple cantilever with no electrodes to figure out its fundamental resonance peak, and its frequency response. Please advice: what module(s) and physics (more than one may be?) may I use? How simple of an approach can I start with? How may I start making it (the model still with no electrodes) more sophisticated? If I import the geometry, could I still make use of Comsol's work plane features? Would I be able to add an applied force (or pressure) to just a specific part (surface) of the cantilever (say the tip)? Should I choose that force to be of harmonic type so I can make use of it at the time of frequency response? Would I be able to see the peak amplitude at the resonance frequency (the actual graph)? My apologies for the long text and multiple questions, but I would appreciate any help with any part of it.

Sincerely,
