Figure 7.

SEM imaging of representative scaffolds after compression. Dashed lines indicate original strut direction before compression and red arrows indicate scaffold longitudinal axis. Parts a and b represent alternating scaffolds showing little to no strut plastic deformation seen in similarity of alignment to the dashed red line. Parts c and d representing orthogonal scaffolds show significant asymmetric plastic deformation after compression seen in the curved deflection of the scaffold away from the dashed red line.
