  382   Thu Jul 27 13:37:31 2017 ZachElectronicsModelingCorrected sample gap sweep2017-07-27


I resolved
a couple more data processing bugs and calculated
a sweep of the ESD-Sample gap from a distance

I ran a
low resolution sweep of the offset in the
arms of the ESD, the space between the end

I completed
an improved sweep of the gap between the
ESD arms. I resolved some code issues, since

I ran a
sweep of the width of the ESD arms. There
appears to be a linear relationship across

I created
a plot of the ratio of the force in the optimized
design to the force in the original design.
