Abstract
ABSTRACT: The principal objective of the present paper is to meticulously review the family of biomaterials used in implants. A spectrum of applications of biomaterials in the perspective of prosthesis is also presented. This paper also emphasises on the review of the recent advancements in the field of biomedical implants with respect to mechanical engineering perspective. The latest technologies such as finite element modelling of prosthetic implants, additive manufacturing of implants and certain experimental methods adopted in the field of prosthesis are discussed. Moreover, various models were modelled using SOLIDWORKS® 2022 modelling software and analysed using ANSYS® 2021 R2 finite element analysing software and implant models were additive manufactured to make this review more interesting and for better understanding. Overall, the latest technology in the field of mechanical engineering that fuels its impact in life-saving biomedical engineering has been discussed briefly.
