Soft Active Materials (SAM)
Soft: large deformation in response to small forces(rubbers, gels,…)
Active: large deformation in response to diverse stimuli(electric field, temperature, pH, salt,…)
A stimulus causes deformation. Deformation provides a function.

•In general, ε varies with deformation.•In general, E2 dependence has no special significance.•Wrong sign?

The Feynman Lectures on PhysicsVolume II, p.10-8 (1964)
“It is a difficult matter, generally speaking, to make a unique distinction between the electrical forces and mechanical forces due to solid material itself. Fortunately, no one ever really needs to know the answer to the question proposed. He may sometimes want to know how much strain there is going to be in a solid, and that can be worked out. But it is much more complicated than the simple result we got for liquids.”

A dilemma
•To deform appreciably without electrical breakdown, the elastomer must be soft.
•But a soft elastomer is susceptible to electromechanical instability.
How large can deformation of actuation be?

Summary• Convergence of the two worlds (soft biology, hard engineering).
• Soft active materials (SAMs) have many functions (soft robots, adaptive optics, self-regulating fluidics, programmable haptics, oil recovery, energy harvesting, drug delivery, tissue regeneration, low-cost diagnosis…).
• Mechanics of SAMs is interesting and challenging (mechanics, electricity, chemistry; large deformation, mass transport, instability).
• The field is wide open (fabrication, computation, application).
