Phase-field modeling and machine learning of electric-thermal-mechanical breakdown of polymer-based dielectrics

Polymer dielectrics are promising for high-density energy storage but dielectric breakdown is poorly understood. Here, a phase-field model is developed to investigate electric, thermal, and mechanical effects in the breakdown process for a range of polymer dielectrics, and analytical expression for...
