Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling Magnetic Torque and Force for Controlled Manipulation of Soft-Magnetic Bodies
TL;DR: The torque and force generated by an arbitrary magnetic field on an axially symmetric soft-magnetic body is calculated using a continuous model that unifies two disparate magnetic models, and the field direction is provided to maximize torque for a given field magnitude.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hybrid, silica-coated, Janus-like plasmonic-magnetic nanoparticles.
Georgios A. Sotiriou,Ann M. Hirt,Pierre-Yves Lozach,Alexandra Teleki,Frank Krumeich,Sotiris E. Pratsinis +5 more
TL;DR: These SiO2-coated Ag/Fe2O3 nanoparticles do not exhibit the limiting physical properties of each individual component but retain their desired functionalities facilitating thus, the safe use of such hybrid nanoparticles in bio-applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic cilia carpets with programmable metachronal waves
Hongri Gu,Quentin Boehler,Haoyang Cui,Eleonora Secchi,Giovanni Savorana,Carmela De Marco,Simone Gervasoni,Quentin Peyron,Tian-Yun Huang,Salvador Pané,Ann M. Hirt,Daniel Ahmed,Bradley J. Nelson +12 more
TL;DR: Soft artificial cilia carpets with programmable magnetization patterns are made and utilized to achieve pumping and locomotion in a soft robotic model.
Journal ArticleDOI
The anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility in biotite, muscovite and chlorite single crystals
TL;DR: In this paper, the anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) of single crystals of biotite, muscovite and chlorite has been measured in order to provide accurate values of the magnetic anisotropic properties for these common rock-forming minerals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic anisotropy, rock fabrics and finite strain in deformed sediments of SW Sardinia (Italy)
Catalina M. Lüneburg,Stephan A. Lampert,Hermann Lebit,Ann M. Hirt,Martin Casey,William Lowrie +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative study has been made in order to elucidate the AMS-strain relationship by investigating mineral preferred orientations and the responsible microstructural deformation processes.
