Electromechanical materials play a crucial role in the functioning of various advanced technologies, from everyday consumer electronics to sophisticated industrial machinery. These materials possess the unique ability to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and vice versa, making them indispensable in the design of actuators, sensors, transducers, and other electromechanical systems. However, one significant challenge that engineers and designers often face with these materials is ensuring their stability and performance under operational conditions, particularly concerning the issue of clamping. When these materials are not adequately clamped down, several problems can arise, affecting the overall efficiency and reliability of the systems in which they are used.
