ABSTRACT Life shows us that the distri bution of intellig ence throughout flexible muscular ne tworks is a highly successful solution to a wide range of challenges, for example: human hearts, octopi, or even starfish. Recreating this success in engineered systems requires soft actuator technologies with embedded sensing and intelligence.

Granularly Coupled Dielectric Elastomer Actuators
IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 2011Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have been demonstrated to represent today a high-performance technology for electroactive polymer mechatronics. As a means to improve versatility and safety of DEAs, so-called “hydrostatically coupled” DEAs (HC-DEAs) have recently been shown to offer new opportunities.

Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) face an acknowledged challenge: On the one hand, the majority of elastomers only achieve small electroactive deformation (> human muscle), and a large output force (≈500 times self‐weight).

Hydrostatically Coupled Dielectric Elastomer Actuators
IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 2010Within the emerging field of polymer-based mechatronics, soft materials showing intrinsic electromechanical transduction properties are being largely studied to develop new types of actuators. Among them, so-called dielectric elastomer (DE) actuators are one of the most promising.

Dynamic response of dielectric elastomers
International Journal of Non-Linear Mechanics, 2004Dielectric elastomers have received a great deal of attention recently for effectively transforming electrical energy to mechanical work. Their large strains and conformability make them enticing materials for many new types of actuators. Unfortunately, their non-linear material behavior and large deformations make actual devices difficult to model ...
