Due to the high strut thickness and weak mechanical properties of polymer stents, research continues on the creation of new models by improving the design and material. The dog-boning in balloon-expanded stents damages the intimal and medial layers within the artery. This damage causes neointimal hyperplasia and restenosis in the early period. During the balloon expansion of the Palmaz-Schatz unit cell model, which is one of the metallic stent geometries, dog-boning and foreshortening rates occur. In this study, a new design was carried out in hexagonal unit stent geometry from PLLA material, taking into account the geometry formed by the expansion of the Palmaz-Schatz stent geometry. The dog-boning and foreshortening ratio of the hexagonal stent designed in thin strut thickness was determined by finite element simulation. In addition, vessel injury in the three-layered artery and calcified plaque structure was measured during stent expansion. The dog-boning and foreshortening ratio of the stent with hexagonal geometry is reduced compared to the Palmaz-Schatz model. However, after the 3D printing of the hexagonal stent geometry was produced as a single layer by fused deposition modeling from PLA/PHA blends, it was wrapped on a heating tubular table and brought into the stent form.","PeriodicalId":358444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of 3D Printing Technologies and Digital Industry","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114985650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effect of cutting and tool geometry parameters on Ra was digitized by performing an ANOVA analysis. It was determined that Ra increased with the increase of Vc, and f. The parameter with the most significant effect on Ra was Vc with 52.77%, followed by with 30.52% and f with 13.72%, respectively. In order to examine the reasons for the increase in Ra value more effectively, drilling simulations were carried out under different cutting parameters using Deform 3D software. The simulation estimated temperature, cutting force and damage during drilling. The predicted results and the factors on Ra were revealed. In the experiments carried out with the drill with a tip angle of 135°, it was estimated that the temperature, the temperature, the cutting force and the damage value along the Z-axis were higher than the drill with a tip angle of 118°.","PeriodicalId":358444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of 3D Printing Technologies and Digital Industry","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115806697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates the effect of 3D parts with different infill patterns printed onto the cotton woven fabric for tensile strength. For this purpose, 3D parts with concentric, grid and triangle infill patterns were printed onto plain and twill woven fabrics with polylactic acid (PLA) filaments in the Fused Deposition Modelling technique. Adhesion between fabric and 3D parts and tensile strengths of produced structures were measured to assess the effectiveness of 3D printing.

Shear walls are bearing system elements that provide the greatest resistance against horizontal force under the effect of earthquake, limit displacements and prevent torsions. A reinforced concrete shear wall is one of the most critical structural members in buildings, in terms of carrying lateral loads. However, irregular layouts cause to torsional irregularity in buildings. For this purpose, different shear wall frame reinforced concrete building models are designed. The model buildings have a regular formwork plan. The shear wall layout has different variations in each plan. These structure plans were mainly classified in two classes according to their torsional irregularities as structures with torsional irregularities and Structures with non-torsional irregularities.
