Microelectromechanical three-axis capacitive accelerometer
TL;DR: In this paper, a micromechanical structure for a MEMS structure is provided with: a substrate; a single inertial mass having a main extension in a plane and arranged suspended above the substrate; and a frame element, elastically coupled to the inertial masses by coupling elastic elements and to anchorages, which are fixed with respect to the substrate by anchorage elastic elements.

A new biaxial silicon resonant micro accelerometer
Claudia Comi,Alberto Corigliano,Giacomo Langfelder,Antonio Francesco Longoni,Alessandro Tocchio,Barbara Simoni +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new biaxial silicon resonant accelerometer characterized by a high sensitivity and a low cross-axis sensitivity is presented, which allows for the simultaneous measure of acceleration acting along two different axes using two couples of resonating slender beams.
Two-Scale Simulation of Drop-Induced Failure of Polysilicon
Stefano Mariani,Aldo Ghisi,Alberto Corigliano,Roberto Martini,Barbara Simoni,Piazza Leonardo da Vinci +5 more
TL;DR: An industrially-oriented two-scale approach is provided to model the drop-induced brittle failure of polysilicon MEMS sensors, and it is shown that the offered approach matches well the experimentally observed failure mechanisms.
Patent
MEMS biaxial resonant accelerometer
TL;DR: In this paper, a microelectromechanical detection structure for a MEMS resonant biaxial accelerometer is provided with an inertial mass, anchored to a substrate by elastic elements to be suspended above the substrate.
Patent
Planar microelectromechanical device having a stopper structure for out-of-plane movements
Angelo Merassi,Mario Francesco Cortese,Fultio Viola,Barbara Simoni,Andrea Rusconi Clerici Beltrami +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, a stopper element is fixedly coupled to the mobile mass and is configured so as to abut against the stopper mass in response to the spurious movement, thereby stopping it.
