Abstract
⺠We present some mixed variational principles for the coupled electro-elastic problem. ⺠Within the variational formulations, the electric field follows from a scalar potential. ⺠The observed domain is step-by-step expanded from basic free space to a body immersed in vacuum. ⺠Finally a non-linear deformable body that is surrounded by free space is studied. The body may undergo large deformations and we assume a non-linear material behavior for the body.
