Abstract: Abstract Dielectric elastomer transducers (DETs) consisting of thin elastomeric membranes trapped between two electrodes are emerging technology for electromechanical soft actuators, sensors and energy harvesters. Among the current challenges in DE actuators are the reduction… read more here.
