The mechanical properties of these implants are much stronger than human bone tissue’s properties, and this leads to fixation problems and a short lifetime, but today these problems can be eliminated with the usage of metal additive manufacturing. The mechanical properties of the implants can be influenced on demand with the variation of the material structure using different sizes and types of unit cells for building up its structure.application/pdffolyóiratcikkOpen Accessby the authorshttps://doi.org/10.21791/IJEMS.2019.4.9.International Journal of Engineering and Management Sciences442498-700X
