Numerical Simulation and Experimental Testing of Topologically Optimized PLA Cervical Implants Made by Additive Manufacturing Methodics

The article focuses on compressive axial loading experimental testing and simulations of topologically optimized design and additively manufactured cervical implants. The proposed platform design is based on anatomical and biomechanical requirements for application in the cervical area. Thanks to ne...
