Abstract: Dielectric elastomer (DE) can undergo large deformation when subjected to external forces or voltage, leading to the variation of the capacitance. A novel DE sensor is proposed to detect compressive force. This sensor ...

Abstract: Viscoelasticity plays an important role in the instability and performance of soft transducers. Wrinkling, an instability phenomenon commonly observed on soft materials, has been studied extensively. In this paper, we ...
