Abstract

A comprehensive experimental study performed under a combination of electro-mechanical loads on a particle-filled silicone as a representative of dielectric elastomers is presented in the Part I of this work (Mehnert et al., submitted, 2021). The constitutive modeling and numerical simulation of ele...
