Control Strategy for the Discharge Phase of an Ultra-High Voltage (>7kV) Bi-Directional Flyback Converter Driving Capacitive Actuators

Yves Perriard, Alexis Boegli, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet

Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs) require ultra high voltages in the order of several kilo volts to operate. To supply such voltages, a DC-DC flyback converter topology was selected. One of the main advantage of using such a structure is the possibilit ...

Electrical energy generated by silicone elastomers filled with nanospring- carbon- nanotubes

Frank Nüesch

Dielectric elastomer generators (DEGs) are flexible capacitors that convert mechanical into electrical energy. They rely on an external voltage source to charge the capacitor during each operation cycle. An alternative to this is an autonomous DEG which op ...

High voltage switch for compact bidirectional dc-dc converter driving dielectric electroactive polymer actuators

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Morgan Almanza, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet, Lucas Pniak

Driving DEAs requires time-varying high voltage power supplies, up to 18kV for 200um polymer layers. HV amplifiers are commonly used but bulky and expensive. Designing embedded actuators requires compact and efficient powersupplies. Furthermore, only a lit ...

Design of High Permittivity Polysiloxane Elastomers for Dielectric Elastomer Transducers

Philip Horst Caspari

Dielectric elastomer transducers consist of a dielectric elastomer between two compliant electrodes. When the elastic capacitor is electrically charged, the dielectric elastomer elongates until a balance of elastic and electrostatic force is reached. Elect ...

27.2 An Adiabatic Sense and Set Rectifier for Improved Maximum-Power-Point Tracking in Piezoelectric Harvesting with 541% Energy Extraction Gain

Kyojin Choo, Yimai Peng

Piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEHs) convert mechanical energy from vibrations into electrical energy. They have become popular in energy-autonomous IoT systems. However, the total energy extracted by a PEH is highly sensitive to matching between the PEH ...
