## Additional information
This is a 3D, multiphysics
model of a MEMS magnetometer, coupling electromagnetic (electrokinetic),
mechanichal (elastic) and thermal models. To run the model, open
`magnetometer.pro`
with Gmsh.
When an alternating current flows through it, the magnetometer starts to vibrate
if it is placed in a magnetic field. The amplitude of the vibration can be used
to measure the magnetic field. To increase sensitivity, the frequency of the
current is tuned to excite a resonant mode of the xylophone-type
structure. Several analyses are predefined: uncoupled modal analysis of the
structure (
`Eigenmodes`
) and calculation of the current flow
(
`Electrokinetics`
), static and dynamic electro-mechanical analysis
(
`Electro-mechanical`
), and coupled electro-thermal analysis
(
`Electro-thermal`
).
