Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear oscillation of a dielectric elastomer balloon
TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical analysis of the dynamic behavior of a dielectric elastomer balloon subject to a combination of pressure and voltage is presented. And the authors determine the stability of the state of equilibrium, and calculate the natural frequency of the small-amplitude oscillation around thestate of equilibrium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tunneling Cracks in Constrained Layers
S. Ho,Zhigang Suo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the energy release rate at the front of a steady-state tunnel can be computed using plane strain fields, and the concept is finally applied to micro-cracking in brittle matrix composites caused by thermal expansion mismatch.
Journal ArticleDOI
A finite element method for transient analysis of concurrent large deformation and mass transport in gels
TL;DR: In this paper, a finite element method was proposed to study the time-dependent concurrent process of large deformation and mass transport in a 3D network of polymers and solvent molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Propagation of instability in dielectric elastomers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a mesh-free method to simulate numerically the instability of the deformation of a thin layer of dielectric elastomer when an electric voltage is applied across the thickness of the layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Digital Logic for Soft Devices
Daniel J. Preston,Philipp Rothemund,Haihui Joy Jiang,Haihui Joy Jiang,Markus P. Nemitz,Markus P. Nemitz,Jeff Rawson,Zhigang Suo,George M. Whitesides +8 more
TL;DR: These macroscale soft digital logic gates are scalable to high volumes of airflow, do not consume power at steady state, and can be reconfigured to achieve multiple functionalities from a single design.
