Strain and filler ratio transitions from chains network to filler network damage in EPDM during single and cyclic loadings

Nicolas Candau, Oguzhan Oguz

Chains and filler network damage were investigated during single and multiple cycles on a series of vulcanized EPDM containing various filler contents. In both series of experiments, a strain and a filler ratio transitions for damage mechanisms were identi ...

Zipping dielectric elastomer actuators: characterization, design and modeling

Herbert Shea, Samuel Rosset, Luc Maffli

We report on miniature dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) operating in zipping mode with an analytical model that predicts their behavior. Electrostatic zipping is a well-known mechanism in silicon MEMS to obtain large deformations and forces at lower v ...

Microactuators based on ion-implanted dielectric Electroactive Polymer Membranes (EAP)

Nico de Rooij, Herbert Shea, Samuel Rosset

We report on the first ion-implanted dielectric electroactive polymer actuator that was successfully microfabricated and tested. Ion implantation is used to make the surface of the polymer locally conducting. Implanting the compliant electrodes solves the ...
