    • Capture and Modeling of Non-Linear Heterogeneous Soft Tissue 

      Bickel, Bernd; Bächer, Moritz; Otaduy, Miguel A.; Matusik, Wojciech; Pfister, Hanspeter; Gross, Markus (Association for Computing Machinery, 2009)
      This paper introduces a data-driven representation and modeling technique for simulating non-linear heterogeneous soft tissue. It simplifies the construction of convincing deformable models by avoiding complex selection ...
    • Giant, Voltage-Actuated Deformation of a Dielectric Elastomer under Dead Load 

      Huang, Jiangshui; Li, Tiefeng; Foo, Choon Chiang; Zhu, Jian; Clarke, David R.; Suo, Zhigang (American Institute of Physics, 2012)
      Far greater voltage-actuated deformation is achievable for a dielectric elastomer under equal-biaxial dead load than under rigid constraint usually employed. Areal strains of 488% are demonstrated. The dead load suppresses ...
