Modeling of the Mechanical Behavior of Rapid Prototyped Scaffolds Based on Their Pore Architecture and Introducing a Prototyping Method to Produce Ceramic Scaffolds, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Bagheri, Reza (Supervisor) ; Baghaban Eslaminejad, Mohamad Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
Mechanical behavior of tissue engineering scaffolds plays a key role in their biological performance; however the effect of microstructural features on mechanical behavior of such scaffolds is still under investigation. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of pore architecture and relative density on mechanical behavior of rapid prototyped scaffolds. In this regard, scaffolds with different cubic, hexagonal and trigonal unit cells were designed. These unit cells were repeated in different arrangements in 3D space to produce different nodal connectivities. The internal dimension of pores varied from 500 to 600 μm. Plastic models of scaffolds then fabricated by 3D...
