Parametric Modeling of Biomimetic Cortical Bone Microstructure for Additive Manufacturing

This articles presents a novel algorithm for generating in-silico biomimetic models of a cortical bone microstructure towards manufacturing biomimetic bone via additive manufacturing. The software provides a tool for physicians or biomedical engineers to develop models of cortical bone that include the inherent complexity of the microstructure.
