Abstract
Background
Porous bone implants have a wide range of applications for their low elastic modulus and good connectivity. It is necessary to explore an elastic modulus control method that can significantly regulate the elastic modulus under the condition of maintaining a constant porosity.
Methods
For achieving continuously changing elastic modulus of porous lattice structure, the simple cubic lattice structures were selected as research object, and the distribution of cross-sectional sizes of its carrying structures were set as variable continuous curves. The prediction model for the elastic modulus was established based on the elasticity mechanics and the equal mass assumption. Then, the prediction model is enhanced through compression simulation of the unit cell structure. Finally, the accuracy of prediction model is validated by compression experiments.
Findings
The results indicate that the distribution of cross-sectional size of the carrying structures has a significant impact on the elastic modulus of unit cell structures under the constraint of equal mass. By adjusting the characteristic parameters of distribution curves, the elastic modulus can be changed within a large range.
Interpretation
Variable cross-section can effectively change the elastic modulus of porous structures while ensuring constant porosity. This method has important value in decoupling the influence of geometric parameters on the elastic modulus of porous structures.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
