A magneto-chemo-electro-mechanical model is developed for simulation of the swelling behavior of the dual magnetic-pH-sensitive hydrogel that is placed in an ionic solution. In this work, four physicochemical responsive mechanisms are characterized, such as the magnetization of the hydrogel, the dif...
