In-air and underwater performance and finite element analysis of a flextensional device having electrostrictive poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) polymers as the active driving element

A flextensional transducer, in which the electrostrictive poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] copolymer was used as the active driving element, was fabricated and characterized. The results show that transducers of several millimeters thick can produce an axial displacement of...
