In-situ alloying of beta titanium for implant application via laser powder bed fusion
By manufacturing biomedical β-Ti alloys with Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF), the “stress shielding” problem can be alleviated through compliance matching between bones and the implant. The “stress shielding” effect occurs when the stiffness of an implant is higher than that of the bone. This will le...
