Rans, C.D. (author), Michielssen, J. (author), Walker, M.S. (author), Wang, W. (author), Hoen-Velterop, Ludmila ’t (author)A challenge in developing an in-depth understanding of the crack growth resistance of Additively Manufactured materials is the fact that their mechanical properties have been shown to be both process and part-geometry dependent. Up to now, no studies have investigated the influence of off-axis (beyond the three orthogonal build orientations)...journal article 2018

Kolken, H.M.A. (author), Garcia, A. Fontecha (author), Du Plessis, A. (author), Rans, C.D. (author), Mirzaali, Mohammad J. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)Meta-biomaterials offer a promising route towards the development of life-lasting implants. The concept aims to achieve solutions that are ordinarily impossible, by offering a unique combination of mechanical, mass transport, and biological properties through the optimization of their small-scale geometrical and topological designs. In this...journal article 2021

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
