Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a

Theory of pressure acoustics with boundary layers and streaming in curved elastic cavities [PDF]
, 2018 The acoustic fields and streaming in a confined fluid depend strongly on the acoustic boundary layer forming near the wall. The width of this layer is typically much smaller than the bulk length scale set by the geometry or the acoustic wavelength, which
