Magnetic Actuation for Mechanomedicine

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2025.
In this perspective, the emergence of magneto‐mechanical actuation systems in biomedical research and mechanomedicine is explored. These materials, ranging from single particles to 3D scaffolds, enable dynamic and remote modulation of cellular processes. By mechanically simulating physiological and pathological processes, these systems offer a new path

A nonlinear theory for fibre-reinforced magneto-elastic rods

open access: yes, 2017
We derive a model for the finite motion of a magneto-elastic rod reinforced with isotropic (spherical) or anisotropic (ellipsoidal) inclusions. The particles are assumed weakly and uniformly magnetised, rigid and firmly embedded into the elastomeric ...
