Abstract

This paper presents a computer-aided modeling and characterization approach for design and evaluation of mechanical properties and structural heterogeneity of 3D tissue scaffolds. An outline of a computer-aided tissue engineering approach for biomimetic design and freeform fabrication of 3D tissue scaffold, a procedure of computer-aided characterization and a computational algorithm for implementing asymptotic homogenization theory, and its application for predicting the effective mechanical properties of heterogeneous PolY-E-Caprolactone scaffold fabricated through a novel precision extruding deposition process are presented.
