Evaluation of the deformation shape of a balloon-type dielectric elastomer actuator prestretched with water pressure
Abstract In this study, we evaluated the deformation shape of a balloon-type dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA) that has been prestretched with water pressure. We fabricated the DEA with poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) as the elastomeric material and carbon grease as the electrode. We derived analyti...
