- Abstract
Microneedles have several applications in beauty and medicine. Many researches are investigating the manufacturing of microneedles on a mass-production scale with relatively low costs, relatively few studies on the mechanical behavior of the microneedle into skin and piercing manner, especially few about polymer microneedles. Microneedles have been shown to greatly increase the skin's permeability, allowing for an effective transfer of drugs. They however still face numerous challenges. In this paper mechanical behavior of the micro needle was simulated by MATLAB and ANSYS via the results of suffered and strength analysis.
