| Abstract | A dielectric elastomer is able to act as an actuator when it is subject to an electric field. This paper deals with the theoretical analysis of a dielectric elastomer balloon actuator that is driven by a fixed mass of high-pressure air inside and the periodic voltage applied across the balloon wall. The equation of motion involving high nonlinearity is derived and the dynamic response of the balloon subject to a combination of pressure and periodic voltage is presented. Considering the allowable deformation of a dielectric elastomer is strictly limited by the material failures, this paper proposes a novel concept of the actuation capability of a dielectric elastomer balloon actuator concerning not only quasi-static states but also dynamic states, and analyzes the effect that the material failures exert on the actuation capability in terms of various operating conditions of the balloon actuator. The simulation results demonstrate that the operation conditions of the balloon actuator have a considerable impact on the actuation capability. This new concept offers a significant guidance for the dynamics applications of the balloon actuator and is applicable to other types of dielectric elastomer actuators. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
