An insight into the mechanical and tribological behavior of carbon-flax reinforced bioepoxy hybrid composite bone plates for orthopedic applications

open access: yesPolymers and Polymer Composites, 2023
Femur fractures are often treated by fixing metallic bone plates in the fractured area. But metallic bone plates are subjected to stress shielding. To overcome stress shielding, a material with similar strength and stiffness to that of the human bone can

A mechanical study of personalised Ti6Al4V tibial fracture fixation plates with grooved surface by finite element analysis

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2021
Low shape matching and high stress shielding rates between bone plate and human bone are not conducive to the primary healing of fracture. In this study, taking the fracture site of the lower one‐third of human tibia as an application case, six types of ...

Finite Element Analysis of Titanium-Reinforced Polyetheretherketone Fracture Plating in Long Bones

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2013
The present study uses finite element analysis (FEA) to compare an original long bone plate design consisting of a titanium alloy reinforced polyetheretherketone (PEEK) biomaterial with fracture plates made from a standard titanium alloy.

Contact Analysis for Coupling of Plates and Screws in Fracture Fixation of Cortical Bone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Internal fixation is a common treatment for bone fracture. Bone fracture occurs due to different reasons such as motor vehicle accidents, falling,…etc. The treatment is performed by fixing plate and screws to the fracture site.
