ROM for large rotations in a MEMS micromirror

MEMS micromirrors are micro components used to deflect light rays in many applications, such as to build projectors. Mainly due to their large rotations, these devices exhibit a nonlinear behavior that challenges the construction of traditional nonlinear Reduced Order Models. In this thesis, the candidate will investigate the subject of large rotations (moving on from some preliminary results we obtained) and propose solutions (e.g. sub-structuring with Rubin’s method).
