Designing patient-specific 3D printed craniofacial implants using a novel topology optimization method.

Large craniofacial defects require efficient bone replacements which should not only provide good aesthetics but also possess stable structural function. The proposed work uses a novel multiresolution topology optimization method to achieve the task. Using a compliance minimization objective, patien...
