Abstract
Effect of a machine shape on swimming propel-ties of the spiral-type magnet
ic micro-machine was examined by using a finite volume method. The optimum
design of the blade shape was obtained by using the results of the simulati
on. According to the optimum design, the micro-machine was fabricated by a
stereolithography. The swimming properties of the machine were agreed well
with the analyzed results.
