(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

Bobbert, F.S.L. (author), Lietaert, K. (author), Eftekhari, A.A. (author), Pouran, B. (author), Ahmadi, S.M. (author), Weinans, Harrie (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)Porous biomaterials that simultaneously mimic the topological, mechanical, and mass transport properties of bone are in great demand but are rarely found in the literature. In this study, we rationally designed and additively manufactured (AM) porous metallic biomaterials based on four different types of triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS)...journal article 2017

Ahmadi, S.M. (author), Yavari, S.A. (author), Wauthle, R. (author), Pouran, B. (author), Schrooten, J. (author), Weinans, H. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)It is known that the mechanical properties of bone-mimicking porous biomaterials are a function of the morphological properties of the porous structure, including the configuration and size of the repeating unit cell from which they are made. However, the literature on this topic is limited, primarily because of the challenge in fabricating...journal article 2015
