Kolken, H.M.A. (author), Lietaert, K. (author), van der Sloten, T. (author), Pouran, B. (author), Meynen, A. (author), Van Loock, G. (author), Weinans, Harrie (author), Scheys, L. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)The innovative design of orthopedic implants could play an important role in the development of life-lasting implants, by improving both primary and secondary implant fixations. The concept of meta-biomaterials aims to achieve a unique combination of mechanical, mass transport, and biological properties through optimized topological design of...journal article 2020

(author), Weinans, Harrie (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author), Zhou, J. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)Additively manufactured (AM) topologically ordered porous metallic biomaterials with the proper biodegradation profile offer a unique combination of properties ideal for bone regeneration. These include a fully interconnected porous structure, bone-mimicking mechanical properties, and the possibility of fully regenerating bony defects. Most...journal article 2018

Ahmadi, S.M. (author), Hedayati, R. (author), Li, Y (author), Lietaert, K. (author), Tümer, N. (author), Fatemi, A. (author), Rans, C.D. (author), Pouran, B. (author), Weinans, Harrie (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques enable fabrication of bone-mimicking meta-biomaterials with unprecedented combinations of topological, mechanical, and mass transport properties. The mechanical performance of AM meta-biomaterials is a direct function of their topological design. It is, however, not clear to what extent the material type...journal article 2018
