| Abstract Scope |
This study delves deeply into the optimization of 3D printed structures resembling spicules to improve their mechanical properties, especially for applications in supporting loads in the biomedical field. Through thoroughly examining design elements and methods for post-processing, the research uncovers the significant impact of specific printing parameters on the structural integrity and performance of these biomimetic structures. The results highlight considerable improvements in strength, stiffness, and resilience, demonstrating the potential of tailored fabrication techniques to meet the stringent requirements of load-bearing implants. Engineered to withstand substantial forces, these structures present promising solutions for effectively supporting large bone implants. This investigation represents a significant advancement in the development of biomimetic materials, unlocking opportunities for innovative approaches in biomedical engineering. By refining the fabrication process and optimizing design factors, this study contributes to the ongoing quest for biomimetic materials with superior mechanical attributes and wider applications in load-bearing biomedical devices. |
