Electromechanical Measurement

Certain materials will provide an electrical response to a mechanical stimulus, for example piezoelectric crystals. Certain biomaterials (hydrogels) and tissues (articular cartilage) also show electromechanical behaviors. In their case, however, it is due to the presence of fluid flow through a network of fixed charged molecules (not piezoelectricity). Measuring the electrical response of electroactive material during mechanical stimulation can provide detailed information about their nature. In certain cases, it is also possible to induce a mechanical response following a electrical stimulus.
