Abstract

A computational method is developed to calculate the deformation of curved interconnects for stretchable electronics. Similar to finite element method (FEM), the concept for discretization of continuum computational domain is used in the method, which can be used to compute complex structures. Different from FEM, the method is mesh independent. As case study, the deformation of a serpentine interconnect is respectively calculated by the developed method and commercial FEM software ANSYS with enough elements. By comparison of the predicted results, it shows that developed method is effective and can be used to obtain more accurate deformation of the complex curved slender structures with lower computational cost.
