Hi,
I want to simulate a ZnO nanowire that gets bend due to a force at the tip. But ZnO nanowires has the unique property that as it bends it generates a voltage in the nanowire and this causes the nanowire to bend even more. Is there anyway to simulate this in SUGAR? Is it possible to create a figure to show the voltage as the wire gets bend?
Thanks.

Easiest solution was to simply download a differant version of SUGAR, simply go to downloads click MEMS to reveal all and download the Windows version and then simply run sugar_init from Matlab.
Bobs your uncle and all that, if only i had seen those files sooner ;S

Thanks MP,
I somehow managed to get tortoise to dump the code and resources from the CVS, miracles do happen it seems.
Oddly i get an error from Matlab when trying to run the simple test:
>> net = cho_load('Cantiliever.net');
??? Undefined function or variable 'NewLuaState'.
Error in ==> cho_load at 3
L = NewLuaState;
The error seems correct as the file cho_load does...

You should be able to download a .tgz (tarball/gzip) file from
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=50424&package_id=44022&release_id=150927
And in there should be a number of things, including some .h files which you have to install in matlab somewhere.
P.S.
I haven't used SUGAR in a few years, and I'm not really sure why I get email notices from posts to...

Hello,
I wanted to see if i could give SUGAR a go, however I have come up short before I can even begin. I have downloaded the most recent source file and i Have Matlab 6.5. However I'am running a Windows machine and as a result the source file simply comes up as 'file' when I unpackage it. Sadly I'am not quite sure what to do with it in order to setup or install the package. I originally...

I am currently working on a MEMS gyroscope for my Masters Thesis.
I see that no transient analysis is available for sugar v3.0 or 3.1,
so I am considering to implement the transient analysis in version 3.1.
I have however, a few concerns:
Why don't the steady state and transient analyses work with electromechanical element boundary conditions (I think in the documentation it is...

i've recently started using SUGAR 3.1 for windows, i'm working with mems
beams. is it possible to use SUGAR to calculate the pull in voltage and the
force at wich a beam collapses?
in page 26 (user's guide) there is an example refering to a comb drive but i can't find the netlist (comb.net). Is it available somewhere?.

Thank you very much.

You need to use a gap element to realize a force on the tip. Check out the example in the
demo subdirectory.

Hi,
I am from India.I am doing project in bent beam electrothermal actuator , in my project i am using sugar tools to optimize the actuator.In sugar i am facing some problem with my design, basically i am using the following code
use "mumps.net"
use "stdlib.net"
Vsrc {node "A", node "D"; V = 5}
eground {node "D"}
anchor {node...
