Design for Additive Manufacturing and Finite Element Analysis of Fe-Mn Biodegradable Fracture Fixation Plate with Varying Porosity Levels (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Shaikh, M., Kahwash, F., Lu, Z., Alkhreisat, M., & Shyha, I. (2023, September). Design for Additive Manufacturing and Finite Element Analysis of Fe-Mn Biodegradable Fracture Fixation Plate with Varying Porosity Levels. Presented at International Conference on Additive Manufacturing in Products and Applications 2023, Zurich, Switzerland

Fracture fixation plates are osteosynthesis implants used to fix fractured bones in a human body. They are either left in the body or required to be removed after a bone healing period of 3–6 months. Recent trends focus on developing iron (Fe) based...
