Designing Soft Mobile Machines Enabled by Dielectric Elastomer Minimum Energy Structures

Dielectric elastomers (DE) are ideal electro-active polymers with large voltage-induced deformation for the design and realization of soft machines. Among the diversity of configurations of DE-based soft machines, dielectric elastomer minimum energy structures (DEMES) are unique due to their ease of...
