Synopsis

MEMS for automotive and aerospace applications reviews the use of Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS) in developing solutions to the unique challenges presented by the automotive and aerospace industries. Part one explores MEMS for a variety of automotive applications, including passenger safety and comfort, stability control applications and automotive tire pressure monitoring systems, along with pressure and flow sensors for engine management, and RF MEMS for automotive radar sensors. Part two then goes on to explore MEMS for aerospace applications, including devices for active drag reduction, inertial navigation, structural health monitoring systems, and thrusters for nano- and pico-satellites.

Key Features: chapters consider the role of MEMS in a number of automotive applications, including passenger safety and comfort, vehicle stability and control; MEMS for aerospace applications are also discussed, including active drag reduction, inertial navigation and structural health monitoring systems; presents a number of case studies exploring MEMS for harsh environment sensors in aerospace.

Contents: Part 1 MEMS for automotive applications: MEMS for passenger safety in automotive vehicles; MEMS sensors for automotive vehicle stability control applications; MEMS for automotive tire pressure monitoring systems; MEMS pressure and flow sensors for automotive engine management and aerospace applications; RF MEMS for automotive radar sensors; MEMS for passenger comfort in vehicles. Part 2 MEMS for aerospace applications: MEMS devices for active drag reduction in aerospace applications; MEMS inertial navigation systems for aircrafts; MEMS for structural health monitoring in aircrafts; MEMS for harsh environment sensors in aerospace applications: selected case studies; MEMS thrusters for nano- and pico-satellites; MEMS enabling space exploration and exploitation.
