Abstract
In the past studies, the resistance of magnetically controlled capsules running through the small intestine has been modeled assuming that the small intestine was a circular tube with a constant diameter. Peristalsis is an important character of the human gastrointestinal system, and it would result in some changes in the diameter of the intestine, meaning that the existing resistance models would no longer be applicable. In this paper, based on the assumption that intestinal peristalsis is actually a sinusoidal wave, a resistance model of the capsule running in the peristaltic intestine is established, and then it is validated experimentally. The model provides a realistic foundation for the optimization and control of the magnetically controlled endoscopy.
