Abstract

The electro-mechanical model of ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) is presented in this paper. Applied electric field moves mobile ions inside the polymeric membrane. As a result, the electroosmotic flow inside the material appears and the subsequent motion of actuator occurs. These physical effects are modelled with the help of the finite element analysis software.
