How Does Hard Magnetic Soft Matter Deform?
Daniel Katusele, Carmel Majidi, Liping Liu +2
Hard Magnetic Soft Materials, i.e., elastomers seeded with hard magnetic particles, convert magnetic energy into complex motion and have become central to the design of untethered…
Soft Electromechanical Elastomers Impervious to Instability
Daniel Katusele, Carmel Majidi, Kaushik Dayal +1
Soft dielectric elastomers that can exhibit extremely large deformations under the action of an electric field enable applications such as soft robotics, biomedical devices, energy…
Exploiting Instabilities to Enable Large Shape Transformations in Dielectric Elastomers
Daniel Katusele, Carmel Majidi, Pradeep Sharma +1
Dielectric elastomers have significant potential for new technologies ranging from soft robots to biomedical devices, driven by their ability to display complex shape changes in re…
Thermal fluctuations (eventually) unfold nanoscale origami
Matthew Grasinger, Pradeep Sharma
There has been a resurgence of interest in using origami principles--along with D materials--to design a wide array of nanoscale devices. In this work, we take cognizance of the…
Piezoelectric thin-film super-lattices without using piezoelectric materials
N. D. Sharma, C. M. Landis, P. Sharma
Abstract: In this paper we show that experimentally realizable apparently piezoelectric thin-film super-lattices can be created from non-piezoelectric materials provided an odd-ord…
Atomistic determination of flexoelectric properties of crystalline dielectrics
R. Maranganti, P. Sharma
Upon application of a uniform strain, internal sub-lattice shifts within the unit cell of a non-centrosymmetric dielectric crystal result in the appearance of a net dipole moment:…
