Abstract:The restoration of tissue biomechanical function represents a great challenge, underlining the need to mimic tissue structure and mechanical behavior through suitable prosthesis and scaffold designs. For this reason, several materials, technologies, and designs have been widely proposed and studied from an experimental and/or a clinical point of view. Polymer‐based composite materials are suitable candidates for applications where high strength‐to‐weight and stiffness‐to‐weight ratios and specific performances… Show more
