Self-Drilling Versus Self-Tapping Screws: A 3D Finite Element Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesCraniomaxillofac Trauma Reconstr, 2021
Study Design: Self-tapping and self-drilling screws are two modalities available for plate fixation. When compared to self-drilling, self-tapping screws have a few drawbacks like screw loosening, thermal osteolysis, equipment dependent, and time-consuming.

BOLTED TIMBER JOINTS WITH SELF-TAPPING SCREWS

open access: yesRevista EIA, 2007
The use of self-tapping screws with continuous threads in the joint area as a reinforcement to avoid splitting of timber members is studied. A theoretical model is developed to calculate the stress distribution around a pin-loaded hole in a timber joint,

Biomechanical evaluation of peak reverse torque (PRT) in a dynamic compression plate-screw construct used in a goat tibia segmental defect model

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2019
Background Peak reverse torque (PRT) is a valid method to evaluate implants’ secondary stability in the healing bone. The secondary stability is achieved by the implant over time and it has been positively correlated with the implants’ osseointegration ...
