Effect of Prestrain on the Actuation Characteristics of Dielectric Elastomers

Effect of Prestrain on the Actuation Characteristics of Dielectric Elastomers

Dielectric elastomers (DEs) represent a class of electroactive polymers that deform due to electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged electrodes under a varying electric field. Over the last couple of decades, DEs have garnered considerable attention due to their much-coveted actuation prop...
