Documentation of elec_mech_beam¶
elec_mech_beam is a MATLAB code for an electromechanically coupled beam model for dielectric elastomer actuators, which is developed at the Institute of Applied Dynamics, FAU. It is part of the source code for the paper (Huang and Leyendecker, 2022). The initial boundary value problem is described in Initial boundary value problem. To solve this problem, the variational integrator is applied as shown in Variational integrator. The code can be run from the main file at src/main.m.
