Next Generation Orthopaedic Implants by Additive Manufacturing Using Electron Beam Melting
This paper presents some examples of knee and hip implant components containing porous structures and fabricated in monolithic forms utilizing electron beam melting (EBM). In addition, utilizing stiffness or relative stiffness versus relative density design plots for open-cellular structures (mesh...
