Role of single particle motility statistics on efficiency of targeted delivery of micro-robot swarms

Akshatha Jagadish, Manoj Varma

The study of dynamics of single active particles plays an important role in the development of artificial or hybrid micro-systems for bio-medical and other applications at micro-scale. Here, we utilize the results of these studies to better understand their implications for the specific application of drug delivery. We analyze the variations in the capture efficiency for different types of motion dynamics without inter-particle interactions and compare the results. We also discuss the reasons for the same and describe the specific parameters that affect the capture efficiency, which in turn helps in both hardware and control design of a micro-bot swarm system for drug delivery.
