Topics may include:
· Micro-Mechanical System Characterization
· Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS)
· Micro-Opto-Mechanical Systems
· Micro-Opto-Electro-Mechanical Systems
Optical, magnetic and electrostatic levitation
· Performance and Limitations of Micro-Mechanical Systems
· Mechanical Properties and Behavior (Scaling, Friction & Damping)
Active control of micromechanical systems
· Sensors and Actuators
· Mechanical bits
· Thermodynamics of mechanical systems
· Future directions and open questions
