Finite Element Modeling and Additive Manufacturing of Meta-Material Bone Implants with Shape Memory Properties, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Movahhedy, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor) ; Mohammadi, Kaivan (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
Millions of people due to factors such as osteoporosis, aging, sports incidents, and accidents face complications from bone fracture injuries every year. Nitinol shape memory alloy and Gyroid metamaterial have attracted researchers to use them as suitable replacements to fill empty areas of broken bones. In this research, numerical modeling and additive manufacturing were used to take advantage of the special properties of both nitinol and gyroid structures. In the modeling section, finite element modeling of the superelastic effect and the one-way shape memory effect of sheet and solid gyroids in cubic and cylindrical geometries with different porosities were done. As a result of the...
