Application of additive manufacturing and tissue engineering in the
fields of science and technology enables the manufacturing of
biocompatible, customized, reliable, and cost-effective parts,
restoring the functionality of a failed human body part. This book
offers a platform for recent breakthroughs in additive
manufacturing related to biomedical applications. This book
highlights some of the top innovations and advances in additive
manufacturing and processing technologies that are the future of
the manufacturing industry while also presenting current challenges
and opportunities regarding the choice of material. This book
includes areas of applications such as surgical guides, tissue
regeneration, artificial scaffolds, implants, and drug delivery and
release. Throughout the book, an emphasis is placed on rapid
tooling for engineering applications. Additive Manufacturing of
Polymers for Tissue Engineering: Fundamentals, Applications, and
Future Advancements acts as a first-hand source of information for
academic scholars and commercial manufacturers as they make
strategic manufacturing and development plans.
This book covers innovative breakthroughs in additive manufacturing
processes used for biomedical engineering. More and more, 3D
printing is selected over traditional manufacturing processes,
especially for complex designs, because of the many advantages such
as fewer restrictions, better production cost savings, higher
quality control, and accuracy. Current challenges and opportunities
regarding material, design, cost savings, and efficiency are
covered along with an outline of the most recent fabrication
methods used for converting biomaterials into integrated structures
that can fit best in anatomy while still obtaining the necessary
architecture, mechanical reliability, biocompatibility, and
anti-bacterial characteristics needed. Additional chapters will
also focus on selected areas of applications such as bionics,
affordable prostheses, implants, medical devices, rapid tooling,
and drug delivery. Additive Manufacturing Processes in Biomedical
Engineering: Advanced Fabrication Methods and Rapid Tooling
Techniques acts as a first-hand reference for commercial
manufacturing organizations which are mimicking tissue organs by
using additive manufacturing techniques. By capturing the current
trends of today's manufacturing practices this book becomes a
one-stop resource for manufacturing professionals, engineers in
related disciplines, and academic researchers.
