Finite Element Method (FEM), Mechanobiology and Biomimetic Scaffolds in Bone Tissue Engineering
Techniques of bone reconstructive surgery are largely based on conventional, non-cell-based therapies that rely on the use of durable materials from outside the patient's body. In contrast to conventional materials, bone tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field that applies the principles of engineering and life sciences towards the development of biological substitutes that restore, ma...
متن کاملAligned and random nanofibrous nanocomposite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering
Aligned and random nanocomposite nanofibrous scaffolds were electrospun from polycaprolactone (PCL), poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA). The morphology and mechanical characteristics of the nanofibers were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy and tensile testing, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy revealed fibers with an average diameter of 123 ± 3...
متن کاملBiomimetic Calcium Phosphate-Polycarbonate Composite Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering
Shuang S Chen and Joachim Kohn New Jersey Center for Biomaterials, Rutgers The State University of New Jersey, Piscataway, New Jersey 08854, United States. Statement of Purpose: Large bone defects resulting from trauma, tumor resection, congenital abnormalities or reconstructive surgery are challenging clinical problems that are usually treated with autografts and allografts. However, donor sit...
متن کاملComputer-aided design and finite-element modelling of biomaterial scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.
Scaffold biomaterials for tissue engineering can be produced in many different ways depending on the applications and the materials used. Most research into new biomaterials is based on an experimental trial-and-error approach that limits the possibility of making many variations to a single material and studying its interaction with its surroundings. Instead, computer simulation applied to tis...
متن کاملA Review on Commonly Used Scaffolds in Tissue Engineering for Bone Tissue Regeneration
Introduction: Bone is one of the tissues that have a true potential for regeneration. However, sometimes the bone defects are so outsized that there is no chance of bone self-repair and restoration or the damage is such that it is not possible to repair with medical or surgical interventions. In these situations, bone grafts are the treatment of choice, but due to several obstacles, including l...
