The effect of location of cracks suggests that cracks near the free end of IPMC affect the deflection more compared to that near fixed end. These studies reveal that the U shaped single crack and rectangular double sided cracks largely affect the IPMC actuation behaviour thus altering its deflection values. IPMC with U-shaped cracks has the highest deflection of 2.88 mm when cracks are located on single side and rectangular cracks have the highest deflection of 3.06 mm when cracks are located on both sides of IPMC as compared to 2.5 mm without any cracks on the electrode. The change in the IPMC's resonance frequency and tip deflection for various cracks is studied and compared with the IPMC with no cracks. Studies are carried out on (a) different shapes of cracks (V, U, and rectangular shape) on electrode region, (b) depth and position of the cracks on the electrode, (c) the effect of presence multiple cracks on the top and bottom electrode. Experimental results showing the deflection and frequency of IPMC with the same dimensions are noted and the simulation results for the same beam dimensions are validated with the experimental results.
