Abstract

Breaking a bone is not uncommon, but in most cases, a splint or even a cast is enough for the bone to regenerate. However, this is sometimes not sufficient because the trauma can be such that a piece of bone is missing, and it must then be replaced with a scaffold until the bone repairs itself. Bone scaffolds can also be used for other reasons such as repairing bone defects, orthopedic surgeries, dental applications and large bone fractures resulting from osteoporosis or cancer. In this report, we will study TPMS structures and how to modify them to make them even more effective in their role as bone scaffolds. First, we will learn more about bone scaffolds and TPMS structures that allow for patient-specific treatment. Then, we will see how I analyzed a solution developed by my internship supervisor to make the TPMS structures anisotropic, first by calibrating the numerical model through compression tests. Finally, I will test the structures through bending tests.
