A 3D finite element model (FEM) of the PEMC sensor was developed to characterize the modes of vibration that have demonstrated high sensitivity to mass-change in experimentally fabricated sensors. The fundamental bending mode of vibration and the 1st bending harmonic are predicted at 10.0 kHz and 86.8 kHz, respectively, within approximately 5 % of the experimentally measured resonances. The Structural Mechanics-Piezoelectric Module in COMSOL Multiphysics was used to carry out 3D eigenfrequency analysis and 3D frequency response analysis on the PEMC sensor using default Lagrange-Quadratic type elements.
