Covers the physical phenomena of electrostatic transduction, including charge accumulation, capacitance, and electrostatic force, with practical examples of sensors and actuators.
Explores Gaussian surfaces and electric fields in conductors, emphasizing the need for infinite relative permittivity to maintain a zero electric field.
Delves into the sensor capabilities of the human ear, exploring non-linear phenomena within the cochlea and the creation of an 'animated' metamaterial.
