Optimisation of Magnetostrictive Bilayer Sensors for Medical Applications

摘要

The paper deals with the optimisation of magnetostrictive bilayer sensors applicable on the skin to register vital physiological data. The optimisation is given with respect to curvature, bending momentum, and temperature of the bilayer. The results yield different requirements for different skin regions, which is relevant for many medical areas. Furthermore, special sensor set-ups are introduced to cancel bending and thermal sensitivity, respectively.
