Rheology and microstructural evolution in pressure-driven flow of a magnetorheological fluid with strong particle-wall interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The interaction between magnetorheological (MR) fluid particles and the walls of the device that retain the field-responsive fluid is critical as this interaction provides the means for coupling the physical device to the field-controllable properties of

The scale matters: A review on stimuli‐responsive microrobots categorized by scale for biomedical applications

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...

Modeling Liquid‐Mediated Interactions for Close‐to‐Substrate Magnetic Microparticle Transport in Dynamic Magnetic Field Landscapes

open access: yesParticle &Particle Systems Characterization, Volume 43, Issue 4, April 2026.
The trajectory of a single magnetic particle moving close to a polymer surface in a tailored magnetic field landscape surrounded by a static fluid is quantified using an adjustable simulation model. Varying simulation parameters give insights in key properties of magnetic particle‐based Lab‐on‐a‐chip systems for medical diagnostics.
