Static Magnetic Field Focusing With Neodymium Magnets For Wound Healing: A Numerical Study

Abstract

Static magnetic fields (SMFs) find widespread applications in diverse scientific, technological, and medical domains. This study explores the potential of neodymium permanent magnets in focusing and controlling SMFs, specifically emphasizing wound healing applications. Numerical simulations using COMSOL Multiphysics create a uniform static magnetic field for wound healing. The study systematically increases the number of neodymium magnets, demonstrating enhanced magnetic flux density and a focused magnetic field. The results affirm the efficacy of neodymium magnets in generating a uniform static magnetic field between 160-600 m Tesla. This research proposes neodymium permanent magnets as a promising tool for wound healing applications, offering a non-invasive and focused therapeutic approach. While the study provides valuable insights, further experimental and clinical validations are necessary to establish the real-world efficacy of this method. The work contributes to the evolving understanding of static magnetic fields as a viable therapeutic modality for various medical conditions, particularly in the context of wound healing.
