This paper develops a control system for a bi-stable positioning system based on a dielectric electro-active polymer membrane. The motion is generated by the deformation of the membrane caused by the electrostatic compressive force between two compliant electrodes applied on the surface of the polymer. A bi-stable spring is used to pre-load the membrane, allowing high stroke but producing at the same...
This paper deals with a positioning system based on a dielectric electro-active polymer membrane. The motion is generated by the deformation of the membrane caused by the electrostatic compressive force between two compliant electrodes applied on the surface of the polymer. This paper proposes a detailed electro–mechanical nonlinear model of the system, which is subsequently used to develop (in both...
