Digestive diseases are a major burden for society and healthcare systems, and with an
aging population, the importance of their effective management will become critical …

During past few years, applications of untethered magnetically controlled soft robots in the
biomedical operations have been extensively reported, which is attributed to the efficient …

The gastrointestinal tract is home to some of the most deadly human diseases. Exacerbating
the problem is the difficulty of accessing it for diagnosis or intervention and the concomitant …

This paper studies the electromagnetic field used for driving a vibro-impact capsule
prototype for small bowel endoscopy. Mathematical models of the electromagnetic field and …

The advancements in electronics and the progress in nanotechnology have resulted in path
breaking development that will transform the way diagnosis and treatment are carried out …

In this paper, we numerically study the flow physics induced by the flexural vibration of a thin
cantilever plate submerged in a viscous and otherwise quiescent fluid. The computational …

The enhancement of medical services relies significantly on engineering research. Magnetic
actuation systems (MASs) are designed to be safe for biomedical applications and offer long …

The unmanned sampling and analysis after return of seabed rocks is an important method
for deep-sea mineral resources exploration. A novel underwater robot for ultrasonic drilling …

In this paper we present a dynamic model for a tail-actuated robotic fish by merging rigid-
body dynamics with Lighthill's large-amplitude elongated-body theory. The model is …

Realization of point-to-point positioning of a magnetotactic bacterium (MTB) necessitates the
application of a relatively large magnetic field gradients to decrease its velocity in the vicinity …
