A novel dielectric elastomer membrane actuator concept for high-force applications

S Hau, G Rizzello, S Seelecke - Extreme Mechanics Letters, 2018 - Elsevier
Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) are known to be lightweight, energy efficient, and
scalable in performance. Two well-studied DEA concepts are represented by stacked and
membrane DEAs, respectively. The first configuration is known for providing high forces,
while the second one results in high strokes. This work proposes a novel design solution,
which combines the advantages of both concepts, ie, high force and stroke, based on a
stack of high stroke (3 mm) membrane DEAs. While a single silicone-based DE membrane …
