Researches in last decades have shown that biological cell’s functionality is related to the way of their deformation in response to forces and stresses exerted on the cell. Therefore designing microsensors with easy and economical applicationswhich are capable for determining cell mechanical properties seems to be logical. In this project using an electrostatically actuated microbeam with both clamped ends equipped with an indenter at midpoint to transmit force on the cell, proposed as a technique to apply axial load on the cell. Inthis research by implementation of approximated methods for solving nonlinear algebraic and differential equations, governing on microbeam deflection, it has...
