Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract
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

Mechanics of nonlinear ultrasound in tissue
A lo largo del desarrollo de esta Tesis, hace un desarrollo unificado de las teorías de nonlinealidad elástica basadas en la mecánica de medios continuos clásica. Se establece una relación con la nolinealidad acústica clásica desde una nueva perspectiva que valida los resultados de Hamilton y Norris en su libro Nonlinear Acoustics [2].
