Experimental analysis and numerical fatigue life prediction of 3D-Printed osteosynthesis plates

The trend towards patient-specific medical orthopedic prostheses has led to an increased use of 3D-printed surgical implants made of Ti6Al4V. However, uncertainties arise due to varying printing parameters, particularly with regards to the fatigue limit. This necessitates time-consuming and costly e...
