Summary: This paper investigates the dynamic magnetic properties of interacting immobilized magnetic nanoparticles with aligned easy axes in an applied perpendicular ac magnetic field. The system models magnetically sensitive composites synthesized from liquid dispersions of nanoparticles which lose translational degrees of freedom after polymerization. The results provide a theoretical basis for predicting the properties of soft, magnetically sensitive composites used in high-tech industrial and biomedical technologies.

Summary: Advancements in micromachinery and nanotechnology, such as magnetically actuated microrobots for navigating in viscous environments, play a crucial role in medicine. Studies have shown that the spatial orientation of immobilized nanoparticles with parallel-aligned magnetic easy axes affects the magnetization response to an external dynamic magnetic field. This study introduces a method to estimate this orientation and experimentally investigate potential application scenarios.

Summary: The rotational dynamics of a prolate spheroid in oscillating shear flows is investigated using direct numerical simulations with an immersed boundary method. The study focuses on the fluid inertia effect and identifies chaotic and nonchaotic rotation modes based on the sign of the largest Lyapunov exponent. These rotation modes depend on both the particle Reynolds number and oscillation frequency. An empirical expression is proposed to predict the rotation mode, and the mechanism behind chaotic rotation is discussed.

Summary: Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a popular stochastic approach for solving practical optimal problems due to its effective performance and few hyperparameters. This study proposes easy particles inspired by lazy ant behavior to diversify moving directions and improve the exploration abilities of all referenced PSO-based algorithms in solving nonlinear constrained optimization (NCO) problems to reduce premature convergence.

Summary: This study presents physico-mathematical models for the cavitation of microbubble clouds during histotripsy, considering bubble-bubble interaction and variable surface tension. The Keller-Miksis equations based on the Neo-Hookean and Quadratic Law Kelvin-Voigt models are transformed into ordinary differential equations using non-dimensional variables and solved analytically. The effects of viscoelastic medium on single microbubble dynamics and interbubble interactions are investigated. The study shows that the growth of a single bubble is more pronounced than the interaction of multiple bubbles, and the number and distance between bubbles play significant roles in the cavitation process during histotripsy of cancerous tissues.

Summary: The paper presents a theoretical study on the circulating flow in a channel filled with a non-magnetic liquid and an injected drop of a soluble ferrofluid under the influence of a uniform rotating magnetic field. The aim of this study is to develop a scientific understanding of drag transport intensification in thrombosed blood vessels. The results demonstrate that under realistic parameters, circulating flow with a velocity of approximately one hundred millimeters per second can be generated in a channel with a thickness of several millimeters. This can significantly enhance molecular transport (thrombolytics) in the channel.

Summary: This study proposes a theoretical model for the dynamic susceptibility and magnetoviscous effect in non-dilute polydisperse ferrofluids with magnetically interacting particles. The system is considered as a homogeneous magnetic colloid without any heterogeneous aggregates. The analysis is based on a mathematically regular approximation of the pair interparticle interaction combined with the effective field method, which agrees well with laboratory and computer experiments in dilute ferrofluids with non-interacting particles and computer simulations of monodisperse ensembles of magnetically interacting ferromagnetic particles.

Summary: This paper proposes theoretical and mathematical models for the interaction of lipid-encapsulated microbubbles in soft tissues, considering the effect of shell thickness. The models include both single encapsulated microbubbles and interacting microbubbles in lipid shells. The modified Church equations for microbubbles with different shell thickness are analytically solved, and it is found that the radii of outer microbubble dynamics are larger than those of inner radii of encapsulated microbubble dynamics under the effect of layer thickness.

Summary: This theoretical study focuses on investigating the role of the cell-free layer (CFL) near the vessel wall in hemodynamics and its relevance to interventional cardiology. The study found that the CFL thickness and its contribution to hemodynamics are non-uniform along the vessel in the presence of stenosis. The effects of CFL on velocity profiles, vortex formation, hematocrit, viscosity, and wall shear stresses in the stenosis area were determined.

Summary: This study presents theoretical results on the effect of magnetic interparticle interaction on the kinetics of remagnetization in magnetic gels with immobilized single-domain particles. The magnetic anisotropy of the particles is assumed to be very strong, and the particle axis of easy magnetization is randomly oriented. The results demonstrate that the interparticle interaction affects the kinetics of particle remagnetization, with the strength of the applied magnetic field playing a deciding role. Specifically, this interaction slows down the composite remagnetization when the applied magnetic field is weak, but speeds it up when the field is high.
