Reversible pattern transformation enhances the environmental adaptability of micro/nanorobot swarms, but strategies to control the pattern transformation rate are lacking. In this chapter, pattern transformation rate control strategies of ribbon-like and vortex-like microswarms are presented. First, a theoretical model for characterizing the magnetic and hydrodynamic interactions between nanoparticle chains in the microswarm is established. The relationships between pattern transformation rates of the two types of microswarms and the three field parameters (i.e., field ratio, input field strength, and frequency) are obtained from the calculation results with the model and the experimental results, based on which the pattern transformation rate control strategy is proposed. The control strategy is then validated in viscous Newtonian fluids, non-Newtonian bio-fluids, and flowing fluids, showing wide applicability
