Abstract

Bone tissue loss may occur in bone structures, which are one of the elements that provide the body’s endurance and movement of living things, due to situations such as falling, hitting, or cancer formation. In bad scenarios, applications such as an external plate or internal rod addition are made to regain the old durability of the structure. At the same time, full or semi-prosthesis applications can be made in cases where the original bone structure cannot be preserved. With today’s advanced possibilities, lattice structures can be produced effortlessly with the additive manufacturing (AM) method. Here, the formation of the structure that can show anisotropic behavior depending on the production and the effect of the roughness caused by the production quality should also be seen in the process plan. In this study, it was aimed to compare the durability of titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) and magnesium (ZK60) materials for humeral half prosthesis using cubic-based lattice structure and to show their differences compared to the original bone structure. Maximum stress and deformation values were obtained by performing analyses with the finite element method on the lattice semi-humerus prosthesis obtained with this aim. Reliability analysis was made on the data obtained, and parameter optimization of the lattice structure was aimed. As a result of the study, it was seen that the lattice structure with 65% porosity compared to the reference values is reliable and with the same reliability rate, magnesium provides approximately 60% lightness compared to titanium.
