Abstract

A numerical Solution of the Nernst-Planck equation for ionic polymer metal composites fixed-fixed beam is required for measuring deflection and stress of IPMCs. These results are extremely important for analyzing this material under variable voltage and preparing it for using in complicated accessories and using it in introducing the material behavior in electromechanical analysis. As a new smart material, ionic polymer metal composites, or in short IPMCs, are typically fabricated by coating noble metals such as gold, platinum, and palladium on each other sides of membrane-based on perfluorinated materials such as Nafion and Flemion. These composites can bend significantly by applying a low amount of voltage. In this research after creating a 2-dimensional model, the equations are applied to the finite element method, then the boundary conditions are applied. The result significantly illustrates the non-linearity attitude of ionic polymer metal composites. after applying 3.3 V, considering this method, the analysis and diagrams show that the maximum stress is 2.21×1012 (N/m2) and the maximum deflection is 0.5 mm.
