Performance prediction and scaling laws of circular dielectric elastomer membrane actuators

S Hau, A York, G Rizzello… - Journal of …, 2018 - asmedigitalcollection.asme.org
For a number of emerging mechatronics applications, dielectric elastomers (DEs) appear as
a more energy efficient, lightweight, and low-cost solution with respect to established
actuation technologies based, eg, on solenoids or pneumatic cylinders. In addition to large
strain, low power consumption, and high flexibility, DE actuators (DEA) are also highly
scalable. Since DE membranes can be easily manufactured in different sizes and shapes,
an effective approach to scale their performance is based on properly designing the material …
