Electroactive differential growth and delayed instability in accelerated healing tissues
Yafei Wang, Zhanfeng Li, Xingmei Chen +9
Guided by experiments contrasting electrically accelerated recovery with natural healing, this study formulates a model to investigate the importance of electroactive differential…
On propagation of axisymmetric waves in pressurized functionally graded elastomeric hollow cylinders
Bin Wu, Yipin Su, Dongying Liu +2
Soft materials can be designed with a functionally graded (FG) property for specific applications. In this paper, we analyze the axisymmetric guided wave propagation in a pressuriz…
Effects of strain stiffening and electrostriction on tunable elastic waves in compressible dielectric elastomer laminates
Yingjie Chen, Bin Wu, Yipin Su +1
This paper presents an electromechanical analysis of the nonlinear static response and the superimposed small-amplitude wave characteristics in an infinite periodic compressible di…
Bending control and instability of functionally graded dielectric elastomers
Yipin Su, Ray W. Ogden, Michel Destrade
A rectangular plate of dielectric elastomer exhibiting gradients of material properties through its thickness will deform inhomogeneously when a potential difference is applied to…
The effect of an exterior electric field on the instability of dielectric plates
Yipin Su, Weiqiu Chen, Luis Dorfmann +1
We investigate the theoretical nonlinear response, Hessian stability, and possible wrinkling behaviour of a voltage-activated dielectric plate immersed in a tank filled with silico…
Tuning the pull-in instability of soft dielectric elastomers through loading protocols
Yipin Su, Weiqiu Chen, Michel Destrade
Pull-in (or electro-mechanical) instability occurs when a drastic decrease in the thickness of a dielectric elastomer results in electrical breakdown, which limits the applications…
