Lectures on Soft Active Materials, 2nd edition

Submitted by Zhigang Suo on Sun, 11/08/2009 - 00:24

In May 2008, I posted 3 lectures on Soft Active Materials given at UCSB. I have since given similar lectures on other occasions, but never all three at the same place. The field has been active. The lectures have been updated with new items. I’m now posting the “2nd edition” of these lectures.

Dielectric elastomers
Neutral gels
Polyelectrolyte gels
pH-sensitive gels

The slides are posted as delivered. No effort is made to eliminate repeating slides.
