Abstract Based on electro-chemical-mechanical couple acting mechanism, the paper investigates the IPMC macro-deformation, as well as micro-mechanism using numerical simulating technique. With the help of developing platform of large commerical finite element program software, the user-defined subroutines have been incorporated and numerical analysis flow chart has been presented. The numerical results about the typical IPMC cantilever for deflecting deformation have achieved. The paper highlights the efficiency of blocking force for laminate, optimal thickness of metal electrode layer and heterogeneous deflecting deformation. Comparing the numerical results with those available from experimental measurements has validated the proposed technique. The results pave the way for modelling and designing more sophisticated IPMC-based products.
