Deformable membranes actuated by high mechanical power density composite electroactive polymers using tailored electric field

Abstract

The objective of the project was to develop a versatile electroactuator based on a specific class of EAP, conductive polymer, that is capable of developing high forces and displacements in both bending and linear contraction/expansion movements.
