Abstract :
The specifications required at the design stage for the thermal management of MEMS based on haptic sensing are studied. The use of a meshfree method is proposed for the computation in real time of the temperature distribution within the system. We describe the problematic of a haptic environment and the critical issues associated with the process of merging design and simulation.
