In the general theme "mechanical and production of biomaterials", research focuses on the study, engineering and optimization of biomaterials, both metals and alloys as well as
bioceramics and recently
bio-polymers, for the
biomedical field. The research of the “Artois Biomaterials team” relates to the application of mechanical engineering to biomaterials and more particularly to the application of new technologies, such as
LASER,
rapid prototyping and
digital tools, to the realization and optimization of surgical implants or surgical procedures. Among the themes developed, can be cited :
- the application of rapid prototyping using surgical diagnosis in traumathology,
- the study of hybrid biomaterials and the development of personalized bone anatomical forms,
- flow modeling in a bioceramic with interconnected spherical pores with application to bioreactors,
- the study of applications to implants of macroporous cellulose,
- the design, modeling and production of a thermal bio-probe for application in the field of thermotherapy,
- the optimization of surgical implants or surgical procedures,
- the design of condylar boxes of articulators by scanning and rapid prototyping of the cranial base with comparative study on patients and application to the production of dental prostheses in biomaterials.
