Microgripper on COMSOL – vertical arm deflection
In order to support undergraduate projects, a number of COMSOL Multiphysics simulations have been created to determine the accuracy of experimental results. The two main projects this year centre around the thickness of the top SU8 layer and the impact of it on the moving speed of the device, and on the manual deflection of…

Microgripper RA
As of 1st December 2013, Linzi will be working on the Durham Microgripper Project. The research explores the design, modelling, fabrication and testing of a thermoelectrically actuated microgripper for the manipulation of single cells and other biological particles. A suitable combination of conductive and polymeric materials together with the design of a highly efficient…
