Mechanical properties and failure analysis of 3D-printing micron-scale ceramic-based triply periodic minimal surface scaffolds under quasi-static-compression and low-speed impact loads

Composite patch with negative Poisson's ratio mimicking cardiac mechanical properties: Design, experiment and simulation

“…Within this domain, cardiac scaffolds fabricated from biomaterials have shown significant potential in repairing and regenerating necrotic myocardium, especially when combined with cells or drugs [ 6 , 7 ]. These scaffolds not only help in maintaining and improving myocardial function but also exhibit promising potential in clinical treatments [ [8] , [9] , [10] ]. However, a major challenge in developing tissue engineering scaffolds for myocardial repair is the structural and mechanical mismatch with native myocardial tissue [ 11 ].…”
