Anthropo-fidelic behavior of elastic-plastic lattice structures (open access)

Anthropo-fidelic behavior of elastic-plastic lattice structures

Article discusses how vat photopolymerization is used to construct triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS) to match human heel pad stiffness. This work substantiates the suitability of latticed models to reach the stiffness of the heel pad chambers.

Application of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane/Polylactic Acid Composite Filament for 3d-Printed Personalized Orthosis (open access)

Application of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane/Polylactic Acid Composite Filament for 3d-Printed Personalized Orthosis

Article exploring a suitable material for designing and fabricating personalized, cost-effective and bio-degradable orthoses. A finger orthosis was chosen as an example to explore a suitable material, personalized design method, and fabrication with a fuse-deposition-modeling (FDM) open-source 3D printer. Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)/polylactic acid (PLA) composite filaments were explored for 3D printing.
