Abstract
This review presents design, analysis and experimental analysis of metamaterials with tunable properties for biomedical applications. Five different metamaterials namely, lightweight metamaterials, pattern transformation metamaterials, negative compressibility metamatrials, pentamode metamaterials and auxetic metamaterials have been discussed in detail with emphasis of these materials in the field of biomedicine. Furthermore, different addivitve manufacturing techniques implemented in the manufacturing of these biomaterials may be customized to provide different mechanical characteristics. Finally, the mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms for the biomaterials have been discussed.
