Abstract
This paper investigates the dynamic behavior of a microbeam-based electrostatic microactuator. The cross-section of the microbeam under consideration varies along its length. A mathematical model, accounting for the system nonlinearities due to mid-plane stretching and electrostatic forcing, is adopted and used to examine the microbeam dynamics. The Differential Quadrature Method (DQM) and Finite Difference Method (FDM) are used to discretize the partial-differential-integral equation representing the microbeam dynamics. The resulting nonlinear algebraic system is solved for the limit cycles of various microstructure geometries under combined DC-AC loads and the stability of these limit cycles is examined using Floquet theory. Results are presented to show the effect of variations in the geometry on the frequency-response curves of the microactuator. We examine the effect of varying the gap size and the microbeam thickness and width on the frequency-response curves for hardening-type and softening-type behaviors. We found that it is possible to tune the geometry of the microactuator to eliminate dynamic pull-in.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
