“…In biomedical engineering, lattices can be optimized for cell attachment and growth; transport of nutrients and metabolic waste; biocompatibility, bioresorbability, and degradation; and biomechanical properties [151]. Examples of additively manufactured lattices in biomedical engineering can be found in [24][128] [319]. The applicability of designer cellular materials and lattices for biomedical engineering, especially for the design and fabrication of orthopaedic implants and for bone and tissue engineering, is discussed in [21] Various optimization methods exist for the design of periodic mesoscale cellular structures.…”

“…However, the most important application today is the improved fixation and osseointegration of biomedical implants compared to porous coatings [78]. For example, AM porous metal acetabular augments are now widely used to address bony defects in patients undergoing revision total hip arthroplasty [319][351] (Fig. 24 left).…”

The past few decades have seen substantial growth in Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies. However, this growth has mainly been process-driven. The evolution of engineering design to take advantage of the possibilities afforded by AM and to manage the constraints associated with the technology has lagged behind. This paper presents the major opportunities, constraints, and economic considerations for Design for Additive Manufacturing. It explores issues related to design and redesign for direct and indirect AM production. It also highlights key industrial applications, outlines future challenges, and identifies promising directions for research and the exploitation of AM's full potential in industry.Design, Manufacturing, Additive Manufacturing

Additive manufacturing (AM) is becoming more diffused. In spite of its advantages: capability to manufacture complex internal feature and material efficiency, AM has inherent drawback from its layer-by-layer nature. "Staircase effect" is observed due to the slicing process of the computer model in which a rough surface from a theoretically smooth surface will be obtained. Hence, there will be a deviation of the produced part from its nominal model. A methodology to predict the deviation of computer model of an additive manufactured part after fabrication process is presented. A case study is proposed using cylindrical features due to its common real case application. Cylinder is a representation of pin-hole geometry. This geometry is an assembly feature which is very important to guarantee the parts can be assembled with their pair. The dimensional and geometric deviation of the cylindrical feature after fabrication is estimated and could be a useful information for the designer.

The paper presents design and manufacturing process of an individualized ankle orthosis using additive manufacturing technologies and reverse engineering. Conventional processes of manufacturing of orthoses are expensive and time consuming Thus, an alternative method was proposed. The patient's leg was 3D scanned and the orthosis was designed using a CAD system. It was then manufactured using the Fused Deposition Modelling technology, assembled and fully tested. Positive results were obtained.
