This project aims to: (1) create analytical and computational models that can predict the dynamic transport of magnetic nanoparticles in a microfluidic system that consists of a microchannel and permanent magnets; (2) develop experimental techniques that can measure the nanoparticle concentration profile.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>REU Student Role and Responsibility: The REU student will work with faculty and graduate student to: (1) further develop an existing analytical model and create a newly-developed computational model of magnetic nanoparticle transport in order to model the timely and spatially varying concentration of nanoparticles; (2) develop experimental techniques (with the mentors) that can measure predicted concentrations in a microfluidic system; (3) analyze experimental data and the potential discrepancy between models and experiments; (4) present results on a weekly basis to the research group; (5) submit an abstract to BMES annual meeting ; (6) contribute to potential journal publications.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Required skills or courses for the REU student: Ideally, the student should have a strong physics\/engineering background and have taken courses including electromagnetism, ordinary differential equation, finite element methods. The student should have experiences in working with MATLAB for modeling and simulation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Expected Outcome for REU student: The student will submit an abstract to BMES annual meeting, and co-author journal publications if the project is successful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project Title:\u00a0Ferrohydrodynamic manipulation of nanoparticles Project Mentors: Primary Faculty Mentor (Name, Affiliation, website and Email\/Phone): Leidong Mao, School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, http:\/\/magnet.engr.uga.edu, 706-542-1871,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[94,7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-2019-projects","category-research-projects"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1070","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1070"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1070\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1071,"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1070\/revisions\/1071"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reu.engr.uga.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
