Nonlinear Forced Vibration Analysis of Dielectric-Elastomer Based Micro-Beam with Considering Yeoh Hyper-Elastic Model

Abstract

The present study investigates nonlinear forced vibration of dielectric elastomer-based micro-beam. The nonlinear terms in beam equation are geometric and material one. Geometric nonlinearity is considered by von-Karman strain displacement relationship and the material nonlinearity is modeled with Yeoh hyper-elastic model. Galerkin and Multiple scale methods solve the governing equation. This solution that includes primary resonance, leads to frequency response, so that we depict influence of detuning parameter on amplitude in variation of different parameters.

Modeling and Experimental Study of a Novel Multi-DOF Parallel Soft Robot

“…In this paper, rubber with the characteristics of large nonlinear deformation is chosen as the flexible material. Firstly, the silicone rubber material is defined as a hyperelastic body, and the second-order Yeoh model [29] is adopted. Then, one end of the actuated unit is fixed.…”
