| Abstract Scope |
Spicules, renowned for their exceptional mechanical properties, have served as inspiration for designing advanced materials. This study focuses on producing nested cylindrical frameworks using 3D printing technology. This study delves into the critical role of core design within 3D-printed nested cylindrical frameworks, drawing inspiration from the mechanical architecture of marine sponges. By systematically varying core parameters such as diameter and arrangement, the study elucidates their impact on structural integrity and strength. At specific core diameters, the structure exhibited improved strength, stiffness, and toughness and the studies showed an optimized design for this structure. The goal of these structures is to provide adequate strength for large defect bone implants in load-bearing applications. This study makes a significant contribution to the advancement of biomimetic materials, enhancing structural performance and opening new avenues for innovative solutions in the realm of biomedical engineering. |
