- Information about exams
- Introduction into submodule "Physics and Mechanics of Microsystems"

1. Forces and Moments
- Accelerometers and Gyroscopes

2. Work and Potential Energy
- Mechanical Energy Harvesters

3. Static and Kinetic Friction
- Surface Interactions in Microsystems (e.g. adhesion, electrostatic forces)

4. Stress and Strain
- Fabrication-induced Residual Stresses and Relevant Failures

5. Hooke's Law
- Damping in Microsystems (e.g.: Losses in Piezoresonators)


Submodule "Engineering drawing and CAD" (ED&CAD)

0. Introduction to the submodule "Engineering Drawing and CAD"
