Investigation on the viscoelastic behaviors of a circular dielectric elastomer membrane undergoing large deformation

To explore the time-dependent dissipative behaviors of a circular dielectric elastomer membrane subject to force and voltage, a viscoelastic model is formulated based on the nonlinear theory for dissipative dielectrics. The circular membrane is attached centrally to a light rigid disk and then conne...
