Magnetic particle swarms are governed by rich nonlinear collective dynamics that complicate predictive, feedback-based control in biomedical microrobotics. We develop a physics-based reduced-order ellipse model that describes the swarm morphology by its principal radii (r1, r2). At steady state, the…
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are very attractive components in many biomedical applications, particularly as therapeutic magnetic microcarriers (TMMC) for targeted therapy. Although MNPs can be effectively gathered and transported using external magnetic fields, the optimal delivery is yet to be fu
This paper presents an optimal control strategy for navigation of multiple magnetic microbeads for future drug targeting applications. To transport the drugs, we use therapeutic magnetic microbeads as navigable agents controlled by magnetic gradients. The main difficulty is to control independently
This paper presents an optimal design strategy for magnetic targeting of therapeutic drugs. In this study, to maximize the effect of the treatment and minimize adverse effects on the patient, mathematical models have been developed to find the number and the size of the boluses with respect to the g…
