Abstract:Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs) are known for their outstanding properties such as low weight, high energy density and self-sensing capability. Compared to conventional magnetic actuators, they are manufactured from generally inexpensive and widely available polymer materials, making the technology particularly attractive for developing actuator systems that are potentially low-cost and serve a wide range of applications. This advantage can be further enhanced by developing scalable and standardized syst… Show more
