{wiki=Electrostatic_deflection_(structural_element)}
Electrostatic deflection refers to the phenomenon where an object, often a structural element such as a beam or diaphragm, experiences a change in its position or shape when subjected to an electric field. This principle leverages the forces generated by electrostatic attraction or repulsion between charged elements.
