Large, Uni-directional Actuation in Dielectric Elastomers Achieved By Fiber Stiffening
(American Institute of Physics, 2012)Cylindrical actuators are made with dielectric elastomer sheets stiffened with fibers in the hoop direction. When a voltage is applied through the thickness of the sheets, large actuation strains are achievable in the axial ...
