A materials perspective on the design of damage-resilient bone implants through additive/advanced manufacturing

After more than 5 decades of research, the failure of bone implants is still poorly understood. The aging population makes it increasingly urgent to solve this issue. Among the reasons for failure, catastrophic brittle fracture can be directly related to the implant material and fabrication and dese...
