The overall implant design should consider the following criteria- Appropriate articulation, good stability, adequate strength, good fixation, correct choice of materials, and surgical instrumentation.
Content:
• Design a porous , two-layer osteochondral (bone + cartilage) scaffold with two distinct strategies of introducing porosity
• Your design should include:
Fixture mechanisms for attaching layers together and securing entire scaffold in defect.
• Describe and justify your approach.
• Do a thorough literature search for porosity and materials.
• Walk through the development of your 3D model from template selection to current prototype Solidworks design
o A flowchart would be appropriate
• Present and describe your specific design plan
o Overall implant design
o Pore size
o Porosity
o Method for introducing porosity
Tips:
Aim for 5-6 content slides
Cite references gathered in research in your presentation.
Focus on the function and development of your scaffold.
Mention factors such as pore size/porosity
