摘要：

A hybrid actuation system (HYBAS) utilizing advantages of a combination of electromechanical responses of an electrostrictive copolymer and an electroactive single crystal has been developed. The system employs the contributions of the actuation elements cooperatively. The theoretical modeling of the performances of the HYBAS is in good agreement with experimental observation. The consistency between the theoretical modeling and the experimental tests makes the design concept an effective route for tailoring and maximizing electrically driven displacement of the hybrid actuation system.
