Actuation capability of a dielectric elastomer balloon actuator

2016 12th IEEE International Conference on Control and Automation (ICCA), 2016
Dielectric elastomers show great promise for soft actuators. As the allowable deformation range of dielectric elastomers is strictly limited by the material failures, the actuation ability of a dielectric elastomer actuator is accordingly bounded. Although the material failures have been well studied, little literature has been released regarding the ...

Dynamic performance of a dielectric elastomer balloon actuator

Meccanica, 2015
A dielectric elastomer is able to act as an actuator when it is subject to an electric field. This paper deals with the theoretical analysis of a dielectric elastomer balloon actuator that is driven by a fixed mass of high-pressure air inside and the ...

CHARACTERIZATION OF DIELECTRIC ELASTOMER PLANAR ACTUATORS

Sensors and Microsystems, 2002
This work intends to extend the electromechanical characterisation of dielectric elastomer actuators. Planar actuators were realised with a 50m-thick film of an acrylic elastomer coated with compliant electrodes. The isotonic transverse strain, the isometric transverse stress and the driving current, due to a 2 s high voltage impulse, were measured for

Dielectric elastomer actuators for tactile displays

World Haptics 2009 - Third Joint EuroHaptics conference and Symposium on Haptic Interfaces for Virtual Environment and Teleoperator Systems, 2009
In this paper we discuss dielectric elastomer actuators (DEA) as one of the most promising technologies in electroactive polymers (EAP). For tactile display applications a large number of actuator elements is essential. The multilayer technology presented here offers the possibility to build up independent actuators and arrays at a high density within ...
