Modelling analysis and optimisation of porous structural scaffolds for human bones by Xue Hui, Song Xiujuan, Zhang Guoliang, Xu Shubo, Zhang Weihai, Sun Siyu, Pan Yuefei, Li Jianing, Ren Guocheng

“…Two different types of unit structure models, ortho tetrahedral and hexahedral, are established, and a series of different porosities are obtained by controlling the parameters such as rod diameter and rod length, and the porous structure can be obtained by stacking the unit structure in an orderly manner in the three-dimensional space, and then finite element simulation and analysis are carried out by simulating compression experiments using Ansys to obtain the equivalent stresses, deformation maps and data, and the elastic modulus, which is close to that of the human hip bone, is calculated to investigate the mechanical properties under different porous structures and different porosities. …”
