Soft dielectric elastomer actuator for micropump application

This paper reports a miniaturized soft dielectric elastomer actuator targeted at an active flow controlled application. The muscle-alike soft actuator buckles when subjected to a pre-stretch tensile force by a pull up spring that is made from 2 mm thick elastic plastic. The actuator forms an out-of-...
