Introduction In recent years, there is an easy noticeable trend, which consists of increasing interest in designing of wireless and battery-free sensors, both in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), as well as in other branches of engineering.
What immediately comes to mind is maintenance of insulators in power engineering and maintenance of becoming more and more popular ceramic bearing, however, those areas of application, require more investigations.

On the other hand, the range of materials used in micro systems engineering still focuses on silicon and polymers.
Moreover, there is an in-creasing need for multi-functional components made of various materials in micro systems engineering [8].
