Experimental and numerical investigation of mechanical properties of PLA-based auxetic structures Open
In this study, two innovative unit cell designs were developed by combining different auxetic structures from the literature, and they were fabricated using 3D printers, one of the most popular additive manufacturing methods today. Tensile…
Mechanical and biological evaluation of β-dicalcium silicate/dicalcium phosphate-based cements: promising materials for biomedical applications Open
This study explores the synthesis and evaluation of β-Dicalcium silicate and Dicalcium phosphate-based cements for biomedical use. β-Tricalcium phosphate was synthesized using microwave-assisted wet precipitation, while β-Dicalcium silicat…
Methods to improve antibacterial properties of PEEK: A review Open
As a thermoplastic and bioinert polymer, polyether ether ketone (PEEK) serves as spine implants, femoral stems, cranial implants, and joint arthroplasty implants due to its mechanical properties resembling the cortical bone, chemical stabi…
Structural comparison of conventional and chiral auxetic morphed aircraft rib Open
Tri-chiral structures are auxetic structures that show negative Poisson’s ratio. This effect is due to their microstructure and geometric sequence. They are used in the development of novel products as they show improved damping and energy…
The effect of the geometric influence of trichiral structures on mechanical properties Open
Auxetic structures are used in many fields such as aerospace, protective equipment, and biomedical due to their extraordinary mechanical behavior. These structures, which are very difficult to manufacture since their lattice structure, can…
Additive manufacturing of hexagonal lattice structures: tensile tests and validation Open
In this paper, different hexagonal lattice structures of the tensile test specimens were designed, manufactured by additive manufacturing, and tested in three different lengths. Moreover, flat shape tensile test specimens were designed wit…
Nickel titanium alloys as orthodontic archwires: A narrative review Open
Nickel-titanium (NiTi) archwires have been widely used in orthodontic treatments at the aligning and leveling step which is the initial stage of the treatment. This review presents the concepts related to NiTi archwires from the materials …
Versatile-in-All-Trades: Multifunctional Boron-Doped Calcium-Deficient Hydroxyapatite Directs Immunomodulation and Regeneration Open
Osseointegration of implants depends on several intertwined factors: osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and immunomodulation. Lately, novel reinforcements allowing faster bonding with osseous tissue have been explored intensively. In this study, …
effects of mandrel shank positionS and the gap valueS between the mandrel balls and the tube on the thinning and the ovality IN Rotary draw bending Open
Tube and tube systems are very critical components to fulfill the design requirement of applications. Especially the bending radius is most important factor in a tube bending process. Therefore, as the bend ratio (bending radius/outer diam…
