3D printed microchannel networks to direct vascularisation during endochondral bone repair
(2018)Bone tissue engineering strategies that recapitulate the developmental process of endochondral ossification offer a promising route to bone repair. Clinical translation of such endochondral tissue engineering strategies ... -
Analysing the effects of 3D printing defects and surface roughness on the properties of acoustic materials
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2023)The principal aim of the research reported in this thesis was to investigate the influence of additive manufacturing on the acoustic performance of 3D printed periodic materials. First, a benchmark material design was ... -
Biofabrication of multiscale bone extracellular matrix scaffolds for bone tissue engineering
(2019)Interconnected porosity is critical to the design of regenerative scaffolds, as it permits cell migration, vascularisation and diffusion of nutrients and regulatory molecules inside the scaffold. 3D printing is a promising ... -
Design of a Kelvin cell acoustic metamaterial
(2020)Advancements in 3D print technology now allow the printing of structured acoustic absorptive materials at appropriate microscopic scales and sample sizes. Optimisation of parameter sets associated with a Kelvin Cell structure ... -
The influence of additive manufacturing processes on the performance of a periodic acoustic metamaterial
(2019)Advancements in 3D print technology now allow the printing of structured acoustic absorbent materials at the appropriate microscopic scale and sample sizes. The repeatability of the fundamental cell unit of these metamaterials ... -
Integrating finite element modelling and 3D printing to engineer biomimetic polymeric scaffolds for tissue engineering
(2019)The suitability of a scaffold for tissue engineering is determined by a number of interrelated factors. The biomaterial should be biocompatible and cell instructive, with a porosity and pore interconnectivity that facilitates ... -
Integrating non-viral gene therapy and 3D bioprinting for bone, cartilage and osteochondral tissue engineering
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2018)The repair of osteochondral defects, affecting both the articular cartilage and the underlying subchondral bone, is key for the effective recovery of joint homeostasis and the prevention of further cartilage degeneration ... -
Optimisation and 3D Printing of Paediatric Stents
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2023)Aortic coarctation is a congenital heart defect that occurs 3 per 10,000 live births with a life expectancy of 35 years if left untreated. Stenting is a common treatment method, but devices are not specifically designed ... -
Ultra-broadband sound absorption in a compact multi-chamber micro-perforated panel absorber with varying depths
(2024)This study presents an enhanced multi-chamber micro-perforated panel absorber (MC-MPPA) with varying sub-chamber depths, offering ultra-broadband low-frequency sound absorption. Traditional micro-perforated panel absorbers ...
