| Abstract: | We present a finite element method for dielectric elastomer(DE) transducers based on the nonlinear field theory of DE.The method is implemented in the commercial finite element software ABAQUS,which provides a large library functions to describe finite elasticity.This method can be used to solve electromechanical coupling problems of DE transducers with complex configurations and under inhomogeneous deformation. |
