Statistical mechanical analysis of the electromechanical coupling in an electrically-responsive polymer chain
Abstract
Polymers that couple deformation and electrostatics have potential application in soft sensors and actuators for robotics and biomedical technologies. This paper applies statistical mechanics to study their coupled electromechanical response.
