Structural-Geometric Functionalization of the Additively Manufactured Prototype of Biomimetic Multispiked Connecting Ti-Alloy Scaffold for Entirely Noncemented Resurfacing Arthroplasty Endoprostheses

Figure 7

Curves of the relative increase of the effective height H_ef of the MSC-Scaffold’s spikes in the consecutive specimens in a series of 9 specimens representing the femoral component—FCS_I to FCS_IX together with the curves showing the overall difference in the effective height H_ef in the particular SLM manufactured specimens. The curves are presented in relation to the effective height H_ef in the CAD model of the MSC-Scaffold prototype treated as the basis (FCS_I for femoral components) and in relation to the nominal height H_n of the MSC-Scaffold’s spikes.
