Characterization and Optimization of Elastomeric Electrodes for Dielectric Elastomer Artificial Muscles

Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) are an emerging type of soft actuation technology. As a fundamental unit of a DEA, the characteristics of compliant electrodes play a crucial role in the actuation performances of DEAs. Generally, the compliant electrodes can be categorized into uncured and cure...
