ABSTRACT: We address the problem of the force exerted on a dielectric slab partially introduced into a charged parallel plate capacitor. This elementary problem is usually solved calculating this ...
ABSTRACT: We analyze the familiar effect of the pulling of a magnetizable rod by a magnetic field inside a solenoid. We find that the analogy with the pulling of a dielectric slab by a charged ...
This chapter presents details of the methodology used for setting up a parallel‐plate capacitor and its charging and discharging, using the finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) method. It also ...
Abstract: A novel parallel-plate MEMS variable capacitor with a thin-film vertical comb actuator is proposed. The actuator can vertically displace both plates of the capacitor. Making use of the ...
