TL;DR: Full-field strain measurements clearly show that, under biomechanical loading, hybrid meta-implants press onto the bone on both the medial and lateral sides, thereby improving implant–bone contact and potentially implant longevity.

TL;DR: The study clearly demonstrated the capabilities of combined experimental and computational methods to resolve the uncertainties of the mechanical behavior of FGPBs, which would open up the possibilities of applying various porosity variation strategies for the design of biomimetic AM porous biomaterials.

TL;DR: In this article, an optimum post-SLM heat treatment scheme at a temperature below the β transus temperature was proposed based on the understanding of microstructure evolution occurring during subtransus treatment and the resultant mechanical properties of the alloy.

TL;DR: The findings show that fatigue life is significantly improved by applying developed herein novel method, which effortlessly can be used on other bone-mimicking metallic meta-biomaterials.

TL;DR: The results indicated the potential of the Mg-Li-Zn alloys as good candidate materials for cardiovascular stent applications, with much improved mechanical properties higher than most reported binary M g-Li and ternary Mg -Li-X alloys, with superior corrosion resistance in cell culture media.
