Could you please let me know the reason for the oscillatory response of the MEMS electrostatic cantilever beam when released (i.e., when voltage is removed)? I understand that a similar "bouncing" phenomena occurs when the MEMS cantilever is pulled in due to the impact. But please help me to understand why an oscillatory behaviour is seen when released / pulled out.

Also it would be helpful if you can provide necessary references and reading materials on the same.

Regards,

Raghu
