Rheology research and applications

In the Singular Laboratory in Advanced Technologies F2N2Lab at the University of Granada, the group carries out cutting-edge research on magnetic nanomaterials through rheomicroscopy experiments, particle-level simulations (molecular dynamics), and finite element method simulations. Currently, we are developing several Nanomedicine applications, in particular cancer treatment and tissue regeneration methods, through the use of non-stationary triaxial magnetic fields using our specially designed equipment.

Research Areas

area1
Magnetic colloids self-assemby

We study the self-assembly of magnetic colloids in the presence of external magnetic fields. We are interested in the formation of complex structures and their physical-chemical properties.

area2
Magnetic hydrogels

We develop magnetic hydrogels for tissue engineering and drug delivery. We are interested in the mechanical properties of these materials and their response to magnetic fields.

area3
Magnetorheology

We study the rheological properties of magnetic suspensions in the presence of magnetic fields. We are interested in the mechanical characterization of new materials.

area4
Magnetic field generation

We develop new methods for the generation of non-stationary magnetic fields. We engineer powerful devices for high-frequency magnetic field generation and accurate synchronization.

area5
Brownian dynamics simulations

We perform Brownian dynamics simulations to study the particle-level structure of magnetic colloids. These simulations reveal key information about the material microstructure.

area6
Finite element method simulations

We perform finite element method simulations to study the behavior of magnetic materials treated as a continuum. These tools are useful for computing magnetic field distributions or solving flow equations.

area7
Tissue engineering

We develop new methods for tissue engineering using magnetic hydrogels. We are interested in the development of new methods for the growth of tissues and cell differentiation.

area8
Microrheology

We study the rheological properties of complex fluids at the microscale. We are interested in Active Microrheology and emergent dynamics in non-Newtonian fluids.
