Abstract
In this paper, the viscoelastic characterization of biosamples is addressed considering a measuring technique relying on the use of a MEMS techonology-based microgripper. A proper mechanical model is developed for the coupled nonlinear dynamics of the microsystem, composed of the measuring tool and the specimen to be analyzed. The Maxwell liquid drop model and the generalized Maxwell-Wiechert model are considered for the sample, and the identification of the viscoelastic parameters is performed by implementing a genetic algorithm.
