Evaluating the effect of increasing ceramic content on the mechanical properties, material microstructure and degradation of selective laser sintered PCL/b-TCP materials
(Elsevier, 2015-06-06)Orthopaedic scaffold materials were fabricated from polycaprolactone (PCL) and composite PCL β-tricalcium phosphate (PCL/β-TCP) powders using selective laser sintering (SLS). Incorporating β-TCP particles is ... -
Evaluation of a multiscale modelling methodology to predict the mechanical properties of PCL/β-TCP sintered scaffold materials
(Springer Verlag, 2014-12-02)A multiscale modelling methodology to predict the macroscale stiffness of selective laser sintered polycaprolactone (PCL)/β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) materials is evaluated. The relationship between a micromechanics-evaluated ... -
A method to fabricate small features on scaffolds for tissue engineering via selective laser sintering
(2010)Purpose:Selective laser sintering (SLS) is a rapid prototyping technique applied to produce tissue-engineering scaffolds from powder materials. The standard scanning technique, however, often produces struts of extensive ...
