Additive Manufacturing of Piezoelectric Ceramic-based Biocomposites: Design, Strategies, and Challenges presents the latest developments in this important research field. The book begins with an introduction to additive manufacturing technology and its role in piezoelectric ceramic-based bioinks development. It then goes on to discuss the utility of 3D constructs developed through additive manufacturing techniques using piezoelectric ceramic-based bioinks for biomedical applications. Design approaches for modifying piezoelectric ceramic-based materials are also discussed as are additive manufacturing strategies for developing piezoelectric ceramic laden bioinks. Post-processing strategies and computational modeling, analysis, troubleshooting, and optimization are also thoroughly explored.

Users will also find selected case studies and real-world applications, making it a valuable reference resource for academic and industrial researchers, materials scientists and engineers, chemists, and manufacturers working on the research and development of advanced piezoelectric ceramics, with a particular interest in additive manufacturing processes and biomedical applications.
