“…Emerging technologies, such as those based on electroactive polymers, can provide high power density with reasonable energy efficiency [22]. Dielectric elastomer-based linear actuators are interesting; however, their thrust profile can be improved in terms of stiffness characteristics [23]. These techniques are very promising, but no electroactive polymer has yet yielded a walk within a biped.…”

“…The higher performance gain obtained for SIP-DEAs, with respect to circular-out-of-plane DEAs, can be explained by looking at typical force-displacement characteristics of the two actuator configurations. According to Berselli et al [28], the intersection points between force-displacement characteristics of the biasing mechanism and of the DEA, at different applied voltages, can be used to determine the actuator performance (see figure 2). Switching the voltage results in moving from one equilibrium position (intersection point) to the other one.…”

“…been adopted in conjunction with DEs, e.g., pressured air [34], hydrostatic pressure [35], compliant frames [8,36], permanent magnets [37], or metal springs [38,39]. The biasing systems strongly affects the type of actuation output (in-plane or out-of-plane), as well as the amount of stroke/ force.…”
