Article Synopsis
- The study examines how porous additively manufactured polylactide (PLA) scaffolds, designed with triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS), behave under stress and where they are likely to fail.
- It focuses on the strain-amplification factor and identifies the most critical failure points based on numerical simulations and comparisons with a crack-growth algorithm using the extended finite element method (XFEM).
- The research also evaluates how the morphology of the scaffolds affects their performance during different loading conditions, offering insights into fracture behaviors and risk areas for crack initiation in AM-PLA scaffolds.
