Anisotropic Mechanical and Microstructural Properties of a Ti-6Al-7Nb Alloy for Biomedical Applications Manufactured via Laser Powder Bed Fusion

Anisotropic Mechanical and Microstructural Properties of a Ti-6Al-7Nb Alloy for Biomedical Applications Manufactured via Laser Powder Bed Fusion

Through tailoring the geometry and design of biomaterials, additive manufacturing is revolutionizing the production of metallic patient-specific implants, e.g., the Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy. Unfortunately, studies investigating this alloy showed that additively produced samples exhibit anisotropic microstru...
