Novel thin polymeric magnetic membranes study for applications in the future biomedical devices
Biomedical devices such as pumping/mixing fluids, cell-culturing, and drug delivery often use different actuation methods. Magnetic actuation using magnetic particles that are embedded in thin flexible polymeric sheets (membranes) is convenient to use ...

Magnetic actuation of hair cells [PDF]
The bullfrog sacculus contains mechanically sensitive hair cells whose stereociliary bundles oscillate spontaneously when decoupled from the overlying membrane. Steady-state offsets on the resting position of a hair bundle can suppress or modulate this native motility.

Computation of magnetic field in an actuator [PDF]
Abstract Design and optimization of an actuators based on magnetostrictive technology requires computation of the magnetic field. The “MS”-technology offers an attractive controllability with high power density. The magnetostriction is a reversible feature which can be used in various actuator layouts.

Magnetically Actuated Colloidal Microswimmers
To achieve permanent propulsion of micro-objects in confined fluids is an elusive but challenging goal that will foster future development of microfluidics and biotechnology. Recent attempts based on a wide variety of strategies are still far from being able to design simple, versatile, and fully controllable swimming engines on the microscale. Here we
