Magnetically actuated micro/nanorobots are typical micro-and nanoscale artificial devices
with favorable attributes of quick response, remote and contactless control, harmless human …

Artificial cilia-based microfluidics is a promising alternative in lab-on-a-chip applications
which provides an efficient way to manipulate fluid flow in a microfluidic environment with …

Metachronal waves commonly exist in natural cilia carpets. These emergent phenomena,
which originate from phase differences between neighbouring self-beating cilia, are …

Coordinated nonreciprocal dynamics in biological cilia is essential to many living systems,
where the emergentmetachronal waves of cilia have been hypothesized to enhance net fluid …

Biological cilia, hairlike organelles on cell surfaces, often exhibit collective wavelike motion
known as metachrony, which helps generating fluid flow. Inspired by nature, researchers …

Biological cilia often perform metachronal motion, that is, neighboring cilia move out of
phase creating a travelling wave, which enables highly efficient fluid pumping and body …

Biological cilia that generate fluid flow or propulsion are often found to exhibit a collective
wavelike metachronal motion, ie neighboring cilia beat slightly out-of-phase rather than …

The authors have proposed a fabrication process of" 4D printer" for magnetic soft actuators.
In this paper, we applied this 4D printer to bio-mimic field and show some examples using a …

Organisms use hair-like cilia that beat in a metachronal fashion to actively transport fluid and
suspended particles. Metachronal motion emerges due to a phase difference between …

Biological cells often interact with the environment through carpets of microscopic hair-like
cilia. These elastic structures are known to beat in a synchronized wavy fashion called …
