Full title:design of hip prostheses with additive-manufactured Structures (OHIDAMP)

Acronym: OHIDAMP

reference letter: PID2021-126471OA-I00

FundingMinistry of Science, Research, and Universities, State Research Agency.  

Group: Advanced Materials and Manufacturing

Call for proposals: 2021 AEI knowledge Generation Projects.

summary: The increase in orthopedic surgeries and the need for implants in increasingly younger patients are leading to more revision surgeries due to implant failure, largely due to the stress shielding effect. This project to design and manufacture a customized hip implant with Structures using additive manufacturing, which mimics the rigidity of bone, promotes osseointegration, and improves durability, reducing complications and surgical reoperations.

Objectives

 Reduce the stress shielding effect by design Structures with mechanical properties similar to those of bone, capable of adapting to the demands of the surrounding tissue.
 Promoting osseointegration through Structures optimized from a approach , analyzing their capacity to promote bone promote .
 Increase implant durability through post-treatments that extend the fatigue life of Structures manufactured by selective laser melting.
 Improving the quality and precision of implants manufactured by additive manufacturing through hybrid manufacturing strategies and localized optimization of surface finishing.
 Design and manufacture customized hip implants by integrating the strategies developed and validating their performance through comparative analyses with commercial implants.

summary:
SURFAV promotes hybrid additive manufacturing to improve surfaces and bridge technological gaps. Universities will transfer knowledge additive and subtractive processes and surface treatments to cross-border SMEs, increasing competitiveness and reducing environmental impact. A knowledge network will be created knowledge adapt these technologies, combining processes and materials with advanced treatments and AI-based predictive models to optimize mechanical and functional properties.
