In this paper, the modeling and control of electrostrictive polymer is introduced for endoscopic microcapsule. The endoscopic microcapsule works in the body, so the material of robot must be no harmful to the body. The electrostrictive polymer satisfies this condition. The modeling and control of endoscope microcapsule must be processed. So the modeling and control of electrostrictive was processed preferentially. The electrostrictive polymer is so flexible that we considered the electrostrictive polymer as flexible membrane. The dynamic equation of flexible membrane is time variant in electrostrictive polymer. It is the reason that the elastic modulus of electrostrictive polymer is very small and changes as deformation of electrostrictive polymer. The control algorithm must overcome these characteristics. So the algorithm of adaptive fuzzy control was used to control. In this paper, we introduced the dynamic modeling and control of electrostrictive polymer. And its deformation is introduced.

This paper is concerned with nonlinear modeling and efficient numerical simulation of electrostrictive materials and structures. Two types of such materials are considered: relaxor ferroelectric ceramics and electrostrictive polymers. For ceramics, a geometrically linear formulation is developed, whereas polymers are studied in a geometrically nonlinear regime. In the paper, we focus on constitutive modeling first. For the reversible constitutive response under consideration, we introduce the augmented Helmholtz free energy, which is composed of a purely elastic part, a dielectric part and an augmentation term. For the elastic part, we involve an additive decomposition of the strain tensor into an elastic strain and an electrostrictive eigenstrain, which depends on the polarization of the material. In the geometrically nonlinear case, a corresponding multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient tensor replaces the additive strain decomposition used in the geometrically linear formulation. For the dielectric part, we first introduce the internal energy, to which a Legendre transformation is applied to compute the free energy. The augmentation term accounts for the contribution from vacuum to the energy. In our formulation, the augmented free energy depends not only on the strain and the electric field, but also on the polarization and an internal polarization; the latter two are internal variables. With the constitutive framework established, a Finite Element implementation is briefly discussed. We use high-order elements for the discretization of the independent variables, which include also the internal variables and, in case the material is assumed incompressible, the hydrostatic pressure, which is introduced as a Lagrange multiplier. The elements are implemented in the open source code Netgen/NGSolve. Finally, example problems are solved for both, relaxor ferroelectric ceramics and electrostrictive polymers. We focus on thin plate-type structures to show the efficiency of the numerical scheme and its applicability to thin electrostrictive structures.

A crack with electrically impermeable surfaces in an electrostrictive material subjected to uniform electric loading is analysed. The effect of electric yielding on stress intensity factor is investigated by using a small scale yielding model and a strip yield zone model. Complete forms of electric fields and elastic fields are derived by using complex function theory. The electrical yield zone shapes for two models are different each other. The two models, however, predict similar yield zone sizes under the small scale yielding conditions. It is found that the influence of electric yielding on the stress intensity factor is insensitive to the modeling of the electrical yield zone shape.

A crack with electrically conducting surfaces in a linear electrostrictive ceramic subjected to uniform electric fields is analyzed. Complete forms of electric fields and elastic fields for the crack are derived by using the complex function theory. The linear electromechanical theory predicts overlapping of the traction free crack surfaces. It is shown that the surfaces of the crack are contact near the crack tip. The contact zone size obtained on the basis of the linear dielectric theory for the conducting crack does not depend on the electric fields and depends on only the original crack and the material property for the linear electrostrictive ceramic.

To decrease the hysteresis of electric field induced strain, $Y_{2}$ $O_{3}$ dopant of which amount is 0-0.8wt% was added to the (P $b_{0.73}$B $a_{0.27}$)(Z $r_{0}$ 75/ $Ti_{0.25}$) $O_{3}$ ceramics. Electromechanical coupling coefficients of the specimen with 0.1 Wt% $Y_{2}$ $O_{3}$ were $k_{p}$=26.9% and $k_{31}$ =20.4%, which exhibited the maximum value at the constant bias electric field of 10 kV/cm. At the same $Y_{2}$ $O_{3}$ addition amount, electric field piezoelectric constant ( $d_{3l}$) and strain(.DELTA.l/l) showed the maximum values of 139.6*10$^{-12}$ [C/N] and 126*10$^{-6}$ .DELTA. l/l respectively at 10 kV/cm electric field. And the hysteresis of strain showed the minimum value of 17.5%. So, we propose that it is possible to apply PBZT system with $Y_{2}$ $O_{3}$ dopant to the electrostrictive actuator.r.r.

전기변형(electrostriction)이란 물체에 전압을 인가했을 때 맥스웰 응력이 나타나고, 이로 인하여 물체가 변형되는 현상을 말한다. 이러한 성질은 대부분의 유전체에서 나타나는데, 특히 탄성계수가 낮은 엘라스토머에 적용하면 전기에너지가 효율적으로 변환되어 큰 변형과 힘을 발현한다. 이렇게 전기변형을 크게 일으키는 고분자를 전기변형 고분자(electrostrictive polymer, EP)로 분류하며, 이들은 구동체 및 센서, 인공근육, 음향전달 장치 분야로의 활용이 유망한 재료로 예견되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 폴리우레탄과 아크릴 고무 등의 유전성 탄성체(dielectric elastomer)를 이용하여 전극-EP-전극의 적층을 이루는 유니모프 구동체를 제조하여 구동시켰고 주파수를 증가시키면서 작동시킬 때 구동체의 운동범위가 감소하는 현상을 전기적, 기계적으로 해석하고자 유전율과 탄성율을 주파수에 따라 측정하는 한편, 고전적 적층이론을 이용하여 EP의 구동역학을 모델링 하였다. 실험결과, 주파수 증가에 따른 구동체의 운동 변위 감소는 재료의 유전 완화시간과 밀접한 관계를 가졌음을 알 수 있었고, 고전적 적층이론으로 해석한 유니모프 구동체의 운동은 실제 적용한 우레탄 구동체의 운동과 상당히 유사한 거동을 보였다.

Rapid prototyping is one of the most important technology for 21th century industry. To overcome the limitation of the material and function, Functional Prototype Development(FPD) concept is newly proposed. Wide function is necessary such as mechanical, optical, chemical and electrical property in order to solve broad requirements of the industry. The process of FPD has more than two conventional processes based on fusion technology and the FPD system is integrated with the interdisciplinary, interfacing and intelligent concepts. This paper shows some representative achievements such as optic coloring prototypes, electric multi layer printed circuit broad(MLB) and MEMS using electrostrictive polymer. Finally, we confirmed that FPD has a great possibility which can be applied in broad industry and will be a powerful tool in near future.
