Ferrofluids investigated along for about five decades are ultrastable colloidal suspensions of
magnetic nanoparticles, which manifest simultaneously fluid and magnetic properties. Their …

In this review article, we provide an introduction to ferrogels, ie polymeric gels with
embedded magnetic particles. Due to the interplay between magnetic and elastic properties …

A statistical model has been developed describing the magnetostatic properties of dense
ferrocolloids and the dielectric properties of polar fluids. The model is based on the relation …

We investigate in detail the initial susceptibility, magnetization curves, and microstructure of
ferrofluids in various concentration and particle dipole moment ranges by means of …

This study presents two improvements to the reliability of magneto-granulometric analysis.
The first considers the use of a two-parametric function to approximate the size distribution of …

Ferrofluids (FFs) or magnetic nanofluids are incredible smart materials consisting of ultrafine
magnetic nanoparticles suspended in a liquid carrier medium, which exhibit both fluidity and …

Experimental magnetization curves for a polydisperse ferrofluid at various concentrations
are examined using analytical theories and computer simulations with the aim of …

The present understanding of how dipolar forces affect the structure and phase behaviour of
classical fluids is reviewed. We focus mainly on the apparent absence of a liquid-vapour …

We review equilibrium thermodynamic properties of systems of magnetic particles like
ferrofluids in which dipolar interactions play an important role. The review is focused on two …

Natural swarms can be formed by various creatures. The swarms can conduct demanded
behaviors to adapt to their living environments, such as passing through harsh terrains and …
