| abstract |
A method for making a biomaterial with a target property, the method comprising: obtaining a precursor biomaterial in a precursor biomaterial vessel, and a biomaterial vessel for compacting the precursor biomaterial therein, wherein a relative reduction in a given dimension of the precursor biomaterial in the precursor biomaterial vessel relative to the given dimension in the formed biomaterial in the biomaterial vessel (compaction factor) is based on the target property of the biomaterial and a change in the property of the biomaterial with the compaction factor. |
