(author), Jahr, H. (author)Additively manufactured (AM) degradable porous metallic biomaterials offer unique opportunities for satisfying the design requirements of an ideal bone substitute. Among the currently available biodegradable metals, iron has the highest elastic modulus, meaning that it would benefit the most from porous design. Given the successful...journal article 2023

Jahr, H. (author), Li, Y. (author), Zhou, J. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author), Schröder, AKi-Uwe (author)Treating large bone defects is still a clinical challenge without perfect solution, mainly due to the unavailability of suitable bone implants. Additively manufactured (AM) absorbable porous metals provide unparalleled opportunities to realize the challenging requirements for bone-mimetic implants. Firstly, multi-scale geometries of such...review 2021

(author), Weinans, Harrie (author), Jahr, H. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)An ideal bone substituting material should be bone-mimicking in terms of mechanical properties, present a precisely controlled and fully interconnected porous structure, and degrade in the human body to allow for full regeneration of large bony defects. However, simultaneously satisfying all these three requirements has so far been highly...journal article 2017
